how fast are u runing now ?
and at what rpm ?
this info will help us figure it out better

dont know what prop's but i would think the speed would be 100 to 110 mph depending on build ,prop,s and set up and maybe more . it's hard to tell ,
best thing is run the boat with the prop's u have and if you hit the rev limiter with ease then you can try 1 size bigger

I'd think it should touch 105 plus pretty easy, the 32 blades should be close also

I saw 103 around 5k RPMs but I had some more trim to play with.... That was my first time running the boat so I let out. I think more seat time will help.

Maybe thats all Ill get out of the boat with this set up I dont know, Im ok with that.

You should be around 110 with that power. Whats your gear ratio in the drives? RPM's should be 5200-5300.

dogghouse 09-29-2010 08:59 PM

Im not real sure about my gear....Ill check on that. 110 would be nice.

ive got a set of Imco 2in shorties I wouldl like to sell. They should help that boat move a little faster

I have sport master shorties on it now..... are imcos better?

With 525s and 1.35 drives that boat should run around 112-113 with a set of 34 bravo 4 blades. Were the notches filled in on that hull? if not, I would loose the boxes and put the drives back on the transom. What deck to you have? Canopy or pleasure deck?

OL40SVX 09-29-2010 09:11 PM

Im guessing it was the pleasure one that was in LA. If so that boat had ITS which is not a problem with the notch in the hull.
