Hey Sean,
Mine came with 511 Hawks but my book had this in it on the 420's. You probably have it too but just in case here it is.

Thanks again fellers!

Jim, I did get the same brocures with my boat! Did you the cool binder and briefcase...I'll take a pic of them later...also I got pics of the head and cabin...

Matt, hope to see you out there this summer, but I know yours is for sale---gettin a new one??

I got two questions

Anyone ever install a ProCharger on a 420? Will it handle 3-5lbs of boost?

How about bolting a #2 lower on a TRS upper? I've heard that that is all the # 2 drive is anyway...

Sean , Congrats on the new boat. Stay with the trs and forget the #2.The number 2 is a deeper drive , will result in more drag, and ***** to find parts.. I would put either a b&m250 or a wipple on those 420's . Been there done that... ps: get external steering you will love it.


Tom F. Good luck

Thanks Tom...I was really just thinking out loud about the drives...

As far as supercharging, I want to go with ProCharger because I want to leave the hatch intact. In your opinion, will the lower end of the motor be able to handle 5lbs of boost?
