Raising your X....
 

Can you raise your X dimension with out having to glass in the transom and start over? Whats the job take? raise the engine motor mounts and the drives..... I have off shore Gil mounts are they a biotch to move? I was told I can get several MPH on my 94 Sonic if I raise my "X" 2 inches and run 4 blade props.....

Get a shorty drive and leave the transum alone. It's alot easier now than it was a few yaers back. Buy a 2" shorty then if you need, space it down. Dave Warden

Other than reglassing the transom, you could put Imco shorty lowers on your bravos.

yea I thought that too.....but I had to ask.....

Cut the whole on the transom bigger and move the transom plate up, then use spray foam to seal it at the bottom :eek: :eek: :eek:

I put on a 2" Shortie and my shaft is still an inch too deep.
Story of my life!
:cool:

Re: Raising your X....
 

But did you still see any gains by adding the -2" shortie???

Re: Raising your X....
 

If I buy an empty 2" shortie case, does the original Bravo One parts fit or is something different? I assume that the shaft between lower and upper needs to be replaced with a shorter one?!

Yep!

Sounds like to much work to raise the X. Spend the money on some new 5 or 6 blade hydromotives!
