LOL my slip numbers are high also . Leave the slip high and save the XR . Drop too 10% and you can kiss it goodbye !

hp? speed? prop shaft height? propeller of choice? -- Hopefully you don't mind my bombardment of questions.

i'm a month or two behind t-mone.... I purchased a y2k about 2 months ago (after t-mone took me for a ride in his, I bought one the next day) and it's getting gutted and rerigged and repowered for the next 2 months.

Currently has the original 496 that is getting yanked out
