Re: Hustler owner pics
Rob, no breaks, spinning 15 1/2 " x 32 herings to 5700.Props were off Ken Bowens race 38ZR. I think they were massaged to hit top RPM on his 525 EFI's.I tried Soinc's ( aka S.K.) stock Herings. Spun them to 5200-5300.( gps 95.6 mph with S.K. in the boat)I don't mind the extra slip on Kenny's props, as a matter of fact I think they help at the drive end due to the extra slip.Gear ratio is 1:50. Best part, We can run all day at 4500 rpm's, good for 85 mph.

Looking for wind deflector
I just bought a '97 40 Fiore and I need to install some sort of windshield / deflector. Any ideas? The factory is not working with me at all and I am getting frustrated with them.

the looks and space it got I love,about the handling and performance I can't tell you because I bought it as a project whitout power and drives ,but I did a lot of research before I figured out I want a hustler.
What I found on forums ,magazines and from owners it is a great rough water boat and one of the fastest V hull ,she had two bleu 500 carb in it tweaked a little to 600 hp each and did a 90+ according to the last owner.
I am know do a complete redone and put in two cummins diesels 320 hp each which I can upgrade to 385hp.
the diesels I do because of the high gas prices here in europe
almost $7 a gallon !
I hope I can tell you more in 3 months about the handling and performance
