LH or RH wheels? LH are faster and not as hard on the drive from what i am told from people who know.

I'm not going to say that my tach is isn't off. I have been meaning to get another to compare but the speed is accurate.

blown 85 dident here back from you if you ran the 28 bravo you got from me let me know how it worked out also i lowered the x down .500 more the boat lost 4 mph so i went back to high x and we went out on monday the boat went 93 mph at 6500 rpm but with a lot of trim so we are going to do some work to prop to help carry the bow without having to over trim. i also ran the same b blades wheel as you have when we raced last month in orange beach and it worked great.

didn't get a chance to run it this season. Hoping to get a chance to take the boat down south over the winter and run it. I'll let you know what happens.
