Rob are you going back to 5 blades now??

I am running 32 px5's and I like them now. But we will see how they work 3 inches higher. I might re pitch them .

3" higher? Thought you were getting -2's.

Yes, I'm going back to 5 blades and changing a few other things.

I have 1 inch spacers now. I am guessing my X dim is around 18 w stock lowers. Not sude how to measure the x dim.

This is the only pic of have, the day I bought it in September. I'm 24 and this is my first Fountain. Very proud of it! Currently doing a dash makeover.

Hey Dean, your boat looks great. I still remember when it had the trip joey griffins.

Any pics of the current engine setup? Any vids?

Find out the distance between the input shaft CL and propshaft CL of a standard drive (22.5?). Subtract the distance the propshaft is below the running surface at neutral trim.
That'd be true X, telling where the inputshaft/crankshaft CL are located on the transom relative to the running surface ahead of the drive. This also affects trim leverage.
It's been a while but I think my X is 19.5 which would put my engines 1.5" higher than yours and with a -1 lower my propshaft CL is 3" below the running surface of the boat effectively giving me an adjusted? X of 20.5"
I think it's something like that. Doesn't really matter because no way in H*** I'm changing it!
