Hey guys I appreciate the input. I expected a few more guys to step in with comments but I think I got the guys who know what's what! Sounds like the x-box just got moved down the list of stuff I want to do! Thanks!

If you get an adapter plate it will be fine.

Kirk, I definately appreciate the input from all you guys and will do the plate. The box isn't off the table just moved down the list (after the interior and motor most likely). There so many ideas... I just have to prioritize!

I Have Two Imco Boxes For Sale If Anyone Is Interrested

Did you guys use an extension box when you ran your Pantera?

I like mine and would not go back I can get on plane in any water and it handeld much better 90 mph is a walk in the park now old days it was a little nervous.

How many inches back is yours B stubb?

Question. Brian and Kirk both made comments about imrpoved planing with the box. Do any of you guys have trouble getting on plane? My boat jumps right up on plane, quick and easy every time. Just curious.

don't have a box, and mine comes on plan OK
I would like to hear more about the high speed stability.
earlier in this post it was stated that imco uses the merc rubber coupler.
Is this the only box that uses a rubber coupler? (that seems weird)

Yes my boat has trouble getting on plane with high x the box improved it tremendously mine is netural and 12 inch imco the stability is huge ive been meaning to get over to joe and let him drive but hasnt happended yet
