My friends TG with 725 Zuls runs 29" Hydromotives but with 1.36 ratio. You might run out of prop with a 1.5 not to mention difficult to plane with the big wheels. His setup runs 99-100 in fresh water.

My '03 with 525's has labbed 32's, ITS with sport masters, runs 84-85mph. We have the same boat at shop that has a set of 30's on it. Also have a 575 boat there it has 32's on it.

I just tried pming you back unlimited39 but your email is full. I basically said what sre said about the drive ratio. If they bumped the motors to 700hp and have 30's on it I would guess the changed the gear ratio. Check and see. My Hustler 388 have 700's and they changed the gears to 1.36 I believe it is. I am turning 32 5 blades.

These motors are re built by Ron potter and have the Arizona speed shop pulleys, and also have ported and polished heads- there dynoed at 700 hp, we ran the boat up to 84 and had trim and power left, also tabs were at 3, don't remember the RPMs , my question is- do 30s sound right for this set up- or would 32s seem more logical?? Thanks for your input!

Still find the screen name a bit strange?

My stock 575s were hooked to 1.36 gears and I have some 30 labs. It Loved them.
At 725 HP and 1.50 SCXs now and running 32s and need more wheel.
