.

for X-dimension, start with 1 1/2 inches above the bottom of the sponsons and keep your eyes in the water temps and pressure

if you see speeds in excess of 85MPH, then get bob's nose cone installed http://www.bobsmachine.com/Nose-cone...sories_c21.htm

The 25" shaft is too tall, you can get MAD EFI's mid sections to to 15" mid http://www.madefi.com/midsec.htm


Dewalds props

if you can't power-through the porpoising, you'll need tunnel tabs

dang this is gonna be a lot of $$$ ��

On a 24' , 20' mids work fine, that is what the boat was designed for. You will need a sportmaster gearcase or something with nosecones. There are alot of 3 blade cleavers for sale on scream and fly for sale that will work great. You'll need 28's or 30's for best all around. I have 200's on mine and it runs in the 90's.

I have a used set of 3L sportmaster gearcases LH/RH 1.62's that came off a set of 300x's I bought. Would sell both for $4k. According to Erik who I bought the motors from they just went through them. All new fluid and the clean grease everywhere when we took them off. I would say they are in decent shape and not bad for the money. Beats 5k each for new ones.

Pix if possible sounds like a great deal. So I would just need 20" mids and bolt my power heads to them then install your sportmaster gear cases to them?

I'm out! The boss is still hasn't figured out why i haven't sold the 308 yet. If she sees the man cave with extra parts she will figure out what's up!

All your!

I can post some pics tomorrow but if you send me a pm with your email address I will send you some with a higher resolution.
They are two piece shafts but that can be changed easily. For someone trying to put a set of starter motors together it is not a bad deal. They do not have the seal kits. Stock seals for the shift shaft and I have not removed the water pumps. According to Erik they were just gone through as he was planning on running the 300x's on his boat before he bought the motors from ZP.
