I sure its been asked but I have a 38' 1986 Scarab twin with TRS drives. Motors are BBC with 177 dyno said 590 HP at the crank. What props are you running at what speeds
Thanks for the info,

Stock my 1992 34 SCARAB had 385 HP with 25 pitch Mirage three blade props but it would blow out if I wasn't easy getting it up on plane. I went to 24 pitch Bravo 4 blade props and it would pull up skiers. I added HP to 650 HP and went to 28 pitch Bravo 4 blade and IMCO shortie drives. It would slip getting on plane but didn't blow out.
