that thing must have some awesome midrange.....:cool:

thanks Roger
 
i appreciate the info. i won't be running that much horsepower but it still gives me a place to start. i was planning on trying a pair of 28 hydromotives as well as looking at 5 blade alternatives.

shakenntstrrd, my 29 came with 29s and the factory performance report stated 88.6 at 5350. The most I ever got stock was 87.5 before the changes. Plus my boat came with carbs not EFIs. Borrow a set of 28s before buying them, you may be able to spin 29s. Roger

thanks again Roger

I agree with Roger. I am running 29 Hydromotive Q4's on my 500HP's. They were perfect. I recently repowered to 585's, so now they are too small... I just had them redone from Tom at Hydromotive. They are perfect, and if you decide you want 29's they are available for you. Carder

I should be starting to run props this next week. If it looks like we're going to settle on hydro 29s I'll get in touch with you.
thanks.

are you spinning in or out.....?

Carder 06-03-2007 03:05 PM

They are spinning inward

sorry, pullmytrigger, you weren't asking me, and I butted in.
