small world, I talked to that guy too! The one I picked up was literally 2 miles from my house so doing the research was quite simple!

Congrats man! Did you take it out on the water? How did she perform? What prop is on there now? BobL is the man to talk to in regards to that stuff. He has a ton of experience with the whippled engines. Glad to see more Nordic fans popping up all over the place.

I would give Bobl at fullthrottlemarine.com a buzz or email. If I remember correctly, he is running a 5 blade (not sure on pitch) on his setup, and the same on his old engine (SCed BBC). Or maybe Steve or CB can chime in. Good luck either way!
