Mike I'm glad it ran good. We still have more setup work but at least you are boating.

I love the idea that I only have to change the oil every 10 hours and not gears every 50 hours.Quote:

At 100 my boat with solid, crazy solid, and I know I can still get more out of her but my whole goal was to cruise faster at a lower rpm and that is what I'm doing. I'm cruising 10 miles an hour slower than my last motor's top speed but I'm only at 4400 rpms rather than being on the rev limiter. The spacer Dustin put in didn't help at all so he will be removing that next time we're in Havasu.
We're going to go with the SCX..Dustin talked me out of selling my SC lower in case we want to make some fast passes (shootout) It doesn't take that much to swap out a lower. I got to say it's not difficult to change out a lower unless your someone like....HOTBOAT...Quote:

So the next run when I got to 80mph I didn't ease into her, I powered on the sticks and she came alive! She accelerated like a bat out of hell. Ran a little less trim up to 80 then more trim as she accelerated thru. It was a rush but also a very smooth ride.Quote:

What the heck is this? An excerpt out of Fifty Shades of Grey? ;)Quote:

I think Grads uses Mrs D's screename for shock value sometimes, no matter, that was hilarious! :DQuote:
