I am currently building some new 1000hp motors and am needing to know which transmissions to run ,they will either be going to arnessons or weismanns, triple engine set as well. Also what are the dimensions length of the transmissions to know how far to move motors forward. Thanks John

John, These are going in a 32 Hustler with Arneson ASD 8.s with 16 inch drop boxes. They are Borg and warner
72c,s Flange style with 10 graphite cluches in each. The counter rotation is accomplished reversing the port engine. The engines are 36 inches on center.

Hope this helps
Gerry

the tape reads 14.5 inches

The flange on the transmission bolts to a Two U joint
drive shaft. It measures 6 inches in lenth. There is
also a flange which the other side of this drive shaft bolts too on the spline of the inboard side of the arneson. This flange allows movement of approx 2 inches forward and backward.

These measurements added
14.5 + 6 inches = 20.5 inches total from the front of the bellhousing to the spline of the Arneson.


I would also check with Rik at arneson-industries.
He is by far the one to contact.

Good Luck
Gerry

Thanks for the info, Just have to see if I need to move rear seat up like Grand Illusion did or not, looks like it.

The question is with the power are you building what type of boat are you puting it into?

Engine placement will only be an issue based upon your application.

RIK: the power is going into a 40 hustler that already had 650hp trips with bravo's. John

Just curious, with the ASD 8s and drop boxes, why did you counter rotate the engine? How much of an issue is it with cam makers to grind one for that application?
