After the drive guardian $hit show I went thru Mike and I are not on good terms.. you got the race version?


Tiki they are definitely not sisters .lol

Yes I have the race version. Have not programmed any presets. Just know on my smartcraft where certain heights are.

That sucks to hear I was seriously considering getting one.

has it ever lowered the drive by itself ?

Never. Has worked perfect for 2 or 3 seasons now

Maybe I should just get out of power boating , I have the worst fu cking luck.
Thought I did my homework, fresh engines from a local builder, build sheets , sea trial , survey, etc etc
and this still happens ..
Motor started to sound funny , clanking at idle and after replacing blower fluid (sounded like gear lash)and adjusting lash it broke at home on the hose. I guess Im lucky in that way, could have exploded at 5000rpm causing a ton more damage

Anyway, new parts will be here tomorrow. Billet flywheel instead of cast and a heavier duty dampner plate and ARP bolts.
5 broken bolts took an hour to dril thru and extrack but of course on one the easy out broke inside the hole ... that took 2 days of swearing and throwing things to fix, but thanx to IZOOM Mike and others that helped with some specialized cutting bits I got it out .
Thank you Nor-Tech for the nice opening , seems like it was made to take out the trans .

I wish I could be happy with the Little Carpe , it never breaks, I can drink, relax and don`t have to drive and it starts everytime and sips gas.. 50mph thou it`s just so boring!
Gets us on the water thou so I should just shut up.

That is not motivating for sure... so what broke in the engine?

Sh!t son. A flywheel broke and lost some blower gears?

What caused the flywheel to shear like that? Obviously was under a lot of stress for some time.

The blower gears are fine , I thought that was the noise but it was a loose fly wheel the entire time.
Not sure the cause .. bolts loosened up is my guess. Also cast flywheel for 1200hp? Not the best choice.. should be billet .
