negative -- it is a faster drive
but the biitch won't get on plane with passengers in back seat --
I ran 87.1 (gps) for a mile or so -- so I like that part -- it was almost 80 degrees out, flat water, 5/8 tank fuel -- I bet it will hit 88 when it gets in the 60's or 50's and some chop
Anyhow - I have a 1" spacer kit coming -- a 30" 5-Blade - and my old lower (rebuilt) to test the low water only pickup version again
I think the combination water pickup deal is making just enough turbulence to screw things up - even with the 1/2" spacer that i put in it
will see after ii get all the test parts back -- maybe one of those pieces will give me 88 all the time - maybe 89 !!
