75w - 90 is fine for your Bravo.

Amsoil 75-110 severe duty.
That is what Teague recommends in Bravos

I'm switching probably to royal purple. Merc's HP crap does nothing but break drives for me :mad:

How fast you going this year?

Hey Jim

Still breaking in the lowers. So I will be testing props the next few weeks. Hopefully, the shorties will net a little speed? I'll let you know once I get the props dialed in.

I have e-mailed Royal Purple and asked them what should I use in my engine and drive. I told them I just put a Whipple on my 500EFI and want the best. They recomended the XPR10W40 for the engine, and the 75W90 for the Drive. Bravo ZX.

I have two cases ordered.

Keep us posted :)

I'll never approach the speeds that you do in that wild 27'. Are you coming to the Shootout this year?

SneakyPete 06-16-2007 09:31 PM

What weight would you guys recomend for an Alpha 1 with about 500hp? I just want to make sure that 80/140 isn't too thick...

Man I don't know about that. Got any more information that you may want to share???

I'm going to try to get down there, it will be another short trip.
