Default Looking for 80mph

It time to do some prop searching. I have a 1989 35ft Cigarette cafe with 600hp and bravo ones! I have 3 sets of props. A set of 25 4blades hydromotive that give me 45mph @ 3500 and 78.2 @ 5400 - 5500rpm. A set of 26 hydromotives with a half diffuser ring 4 blades that I can get 47 mph @ 3500 and 77.2 @ 5500 rpm. and a set of 26 bravo one 4 blades that I can get 49mph @ 3500 and 77.9 @ 5500rpm. It seem the bravo one are the best of the three but I'm looking for 80mph. Any thought!!!! The wot # are the best I have seen with those props. Thanks Scott

I'm looking in the same direction, Scott. My TG has run a best of 78 in cool weather, glass flat water @ 5200 with 500hp carbed but I want to see "80" on the needle. I'm running 28 Bravos that must have had some work done to them by Mazco since "Mazco" is stamped into them. Here's the kicker with my boat. Since it is a former F-2 boat, the XD must be a little higher than stock. I see someone added 1" spacers to the lowers to ease up on the XD a little. I'm debating removing the spacer and trying my buddie's labbed 30 Bravos. I know it's probably going to be a bit much but just want to see where it leads. Might just need to turn my 28's up a bit and have them labbed. Wife is busting my ballz to just "Leave it Alone!!!!" Nah, that's no fun!
