Oops my bravo's were 1.34's & I was right there at 6200-6300.

Indy drives will be 1.50's like yours & I think the Eliminator but not positive on that.

Indy's Baby!
 
Coming into this pretty late, but the boat is going to love running those drives! We are currently working on a aerator set up that will help free up the props to get the boat onto plane and help out a bit more in certain areas! When it comes to proping the boat w/ $5k props give us/Bob a call and he can really be a big help to your new project!

A couple of our 800EFI's w/ Indy's will sure be a hot package in one of these very soon!

Congrats to the install,Look forward to hearing more on this set-up! Best of luck! -Eric

My guess would be 16.25x37 5 blade Herings , spinning in, and you'll be good to go!:ernaehrung004:

Eric,

I appreciate you chiming in. I've spoken to Bob on several occassions b/c my last Ilmor powered boat was a Spectre w/ 625's & Teague Platinum Drives. Ended up that the props that I purchased the boat w/ were optimum.

Bob has tested my boat for PB. I reached out to Matt Trulio to see if he was interested in a follow up story now that it's being upgraded to an all ILMOR pkg but haven't heard back from him.

Depending on what props Skater has avaialble to them when they splash her for the first time & how well she performs will determine whether or not I have to take you up on your offer.

Good looking Skater race boat in post #52!:D

Eliminator 28 w/ ILMOR 725's & Indy drives liked
17x39 – 20deg 5 blades & I believe it has a 1.39 drive ratio whereas I have 1.50 as does Stainless' 32 Skater.
