Just go ahead and swap drives w Eric. I will take the -4's from you and then you will be back to the right x dim.. Then I will fork Eric the cash I get for my XR's on ebay. He can cover the diff on a set of # 6's because he only had to build his motors once this year

Eric do you think the #6 package is going to gain you anything for the $$$ you need to spend ?

I tried !
Rob Either i'm gonna go to 850's or a 42 w 6's . ( but not for a long time) I'll let you know if I go 850's

Also Dry 6's take a lot less HP to spin

He will not have to pull the motors. He will need to keep the inner Gimbal plate on the rear motor so it can be transported to FPM. Once it gets to FPM, they will remove the rear motor and send inner plate back to YPM.

According to Lil R...8-10mph. From day one he said with my setup if I brought him a boat with 1000ish HP he would get me between 120-125. He was spot on. All I can go off of is 42's with factory 1075's. They are pretty much 130-135mph boats all day. If we can get 130-132 then we would be stoked. Strap on some 4 litres...and we will be at 140ish. 140 has always been our goal.
