I help out Gary Smith with Predator, I just listen and learn. Observe and I'm around so I've just gathered knowledge from others.

Never ran an NXT but had 6's on a 39 TG. Can honestly say the NXT / 700 package is a little faster. 6's are longer. The new 8's are 2" shorter with an improved lower. Will see what the lower CG without burying the drive does for new boat. Will be able to give good comparison in three weeks.

What are you putting in front of the 8's on the new boat?

Pretty sure he said 1100 turbos in his build thread. I waiting to hear how his 42 runs also.
