I had a 98 35 single step hull; I set my old boat up with Imco 2" shortened drives, I did gain top end speed but be extremely cautious of over trimming the boat with the shortened drives.
I would recommend a 1" shortened drive or add a 1 " spacer to the 2" shortened drive and experiment on what works for you.
Too short of an X-dimension and the boat could hook on you if you are not careful.
