Default Help! Need x dimension help !!!!!

I've got a 1993 42 executioner. ...converted from trips to staggered . 18 inch centers. 575 hp per side. Bravos.

Need to know where to set my X before we cut drive holes.

Reggie lll said to go 1 inch under bottom running 5 blade maximus.

Anyone have any input???

I'm worried this will be too high.....

I'd say Reggie III would be the expert on the subject.

1" below sounds pretty conservative for reggie's typical suggestion. But closer to where I'd rather see a bravo setup if you want any longevity vs top speed.
