Default Scarab 400 restore

Finally time to get the old 400 in the water hoping for next year
just need to wrap up a few designs ideas
I have a set of ssm 3s
Running 540 700hp in front of them
Was looking at extention boxes not sure if there worth the extra money not sure what all has to be done to use them
Always on the look out for a set of 3a's
anyone have a simular set up or running a scarab 400 out there

I'm pretty sure there 1.5 to 1 the problem is I bought them used from a rudder race boat so the guy I bought them from cut the skegs off 2in or so from the speed cone so I'll have to welder skegs on the lower units

1.5 is good. If you need SSM3 cases or parts I have tons I'm no longer needing.
Get your post count up so you can post pics!

do you know if the posted are individual counted for example this thread would be 1 or does it count replays to a post as well
