Default throttle Up

Julie,

I received my labbed P5x's. You guys did a real nice job. They are so purdy it was a shame to get them wet!! Ran between 77.9 and 78.5 @ 5400. The cupping definitely added some bow lift from cruise speed to WOT. Picked up 1-2 mph throughout the entire RPM range. I will change out the blower pullies for an additional 1lb+ of boost which should get me to 5500-5600 for 80+mph. can you give me my slip #'s?? 25.5" pitch with added cupping.

Thanks again. Your service is first class!!

Duane

You are at 10% slip! Let me know how it goes with the additional boost, Duane.

JJ, same boat. motors were dynoed @ 625 at Zul's. Never did the stand-off boxs. I do think it would help carry the bow though.
