I also have a bad trim indicator on starboard and that drive trims faster than port so there is some issue too. I ran it yesterday and trimmed to match rpm. I have a set of 29p Hydromotive and a set of 31p Mach sterndrivers to try for s*** & giggles. Running 28p Bravos now. Factory performance report said it radared at 71.8 with 28p Bravos. It appears I have an early 2000 hull with a bit of hook in the stern yet. I will probably end up shaving some additional lifting strake off like Wildman1 did with his 99.

Winter of 2000 put stage 1 pro charger on the mpi's. Boat radar gun at 88 mph but took off to the right with 3/4 throttle left. That summer I kept blowing the top bearing out of it so in the winter of 01 I bought two 500 EFI's and said the hell with it. The boat now run 82 mph on the gps with 1/4 tank of fuel and two people. Above 80 she will start to chime walk trim out. The boat runs flat. The factory redid the bottom and blueprint the bottom. If I were you stay away from the pro chargers or you will get good at changing drives.I am now running 30 pitch lab merc props @ 5200 rpm's
