Just wondering how many hour can be expected from outdrives
with regular oil changes alignments such.

31 american offshore 1.36xz's w/2" shorties spins 6700 rpm w/15 1/2 by 33's hydro 4 blds. 2 seasons so far. i run them hard and so far so good.

210hrs on XRs,, 36 apache,,, 600SC, upgraded insides with Max Machine parts,,, Cryo- Froze all the gears,,,, do I run it hard,,,, Ask those who follow me!!! However,,, Like the Trout Man said ,,, easy up/easy down dont fly the boat any more than is needed ,,,, 29pitch Bravo Four Blade prepped by Julie!!! It all works guys! No fuzzys on the plugs,,, change oil every 30-40hrs, Royal Purple at $8.50 a quart,,,, Nobody said it would be cheap....

RHC

238 hours before gears were relaced, 36 Cigarette with labbed Merc 4 blades, 500's one season and 525's thes second, ITS , had more time but did it as preventative maintenance.

And U dont drive it hard either,, !!!! RITE !
