On a more serious note, we'll get here going. You have all the ingredients, just need some fine tuning. Prob same for tommy. I can tell ya a couple years ago when I first installed the 250 blowers on my engines, initial run on the river I saw 66mph on GPS. I almost puked. By the end of that summer, with some tuning, props, etc, it ran 83mph before I put in away for storage. No bs. |
dan I know the feeling its like your on the rev limiters at half throttle I hope the 29s work better for you joe I still have the 17-28-4 blades you tried out dan can use them if he wants to the 26s I tried was a one shot deal they were off ricks nortec

Tommy, are you throwing a rooster tail at speed?
|
yes, not like a #6 boat I would say 5 feet high 60 feet long
|
Little birdie told me the big old orange Fountain hit some good speed numbers with some 4 blades.

Im happy for you man. Thats a number to be proud of! Those round ears just might be the ticket. Carry that nose higher out of the water and get that beak up in the air :) Godd dammit though. I wanna spend a lot more time in racine next year with you guys, really liked it there. Looks like im gonna have to step up my game to run with you guys though! Know anyone who wants some 468 shortblocks :( |
Love that restored fountain
Any updates ?? Did you try the round ear props, yet? |
great news!
|
the round ears got sold on me still looking for some 4 or 5 blades to try out
