That was my original plan. What did you use for a drive,an ASD 6? The Army boat has a TRS? What do you think an extension box would do on a 24 with a TRS, I know where to get one currently

The Army 24 has X of 18", My 24 Pantera has 18 (plus 1/2" since the pad is redesigned). With a Rev4 I have absolutely no blow outs or problem getting on plane or doing fast turns. I will be testing 3blades this weekend...


My advice to the thread starter is to get rid of the old and outdated TRS, get a Bravo and get some speed!

I'm running 79.5MPH with a Bravo One X and 496HO.

I put my x at 17 in my 24 Pantera and there is about an inch between the bottom of the engine hatch and my upper intake on a 500efi
