#6 drives on a formula 357-SR1
 
has anyone installed #6 drives on a 357-sr1? If so what kind of advantages did you get?:evilb:

amazing1 08-13-2009 07:16 PM

No one has tried this? What about #5 drives?:evilb:

U gonna put more then 1000HP each in it ????

If not ,,don't even think about it .

Boats are built to handle certain weights and loads. Be careful, but a Formula that size from that era (not knocking them as they are nice boats) might not be capable of handling a #6 unless certain structual upgrades/additions have been done.

I think the drives would out value the hull?

ApachePete 08-13-2009 09:55 PM

I had that boat.

I had a boat with # 6's.

Thge drives would be worth more that the boat.

DareDevil 08-13-2009 10:35 PM

Don't listen to them,,,,,lol.....if the boat is worth that much to you then u can do what ever u want,,,just make sure it makes sense and is safe !!!!!!!!!!
They are buld like a brick ****house so i would not worry about structure ,,but i would get it dialed in and CG set new after ...other wise it would not work and also ,,like i said before i would not think about it if u get less then 1000 HP each in there.

Because then u could go with XR's,,,IMCO,,,and what else is out there !!!!:coolcowboy:


PLUS U COULD LET ME DO THE CONVERSION AND RIGGING ,THEN I WOULD GET IT DIALED IN ASWELL FOR U AND U WOULD HAVE THE FASTEST 357 on the planet.

Would make us both happy .lol

Seems like overkill. What size motors are you running? What is the reasoning behind added the 6's?

vtec 08-14-2009 04:05 AM

compared to bravo's -nothing is overkill.
