Post 7 of that thread sounds like the drive they have didn't come direct from IMCO and maybe the ratio is off. I don't know. I'm just saying at my speeds it was barely noticeable. And I will take that loss for no broken drive.

Very glad to hear this!! :-) :-)

Im wondering if a Rem polish on the gear might bring back some of the loss.

What kinds power you putting thru them? How much speed loss did you see and since they are -2 did you porp shaft height change?

Quinlan 03-17-2014 08:14 AM

Right at 750 hp. I have Stellings and I installed 1" spacer to lower a little.
I might have lost 2 to 3 but Top End is Not my pursuit. ALL summer NO issues IS.

Totally satisfied. Well except for the Hinge pins screws--- Note to Self- Check tq regularly!!!!.
