Kap how did Jeff's boat run? I'm not sure if he's done anything else to it recently other than paint.

Boat ran awesome, had motor gone through last season, went from 540 to 555, changed roller cam to a solid lifter cam, all T&D valve train, jessel timing belt, on the Dyno it was 1153hp on 93, before refresh it was at 1035hp.

Boat was completely refreshed all new Livorsi Gauges, stereo re-vamped, installed a Garmin 741 Chart plotter on port side where grab handle was, next year she will be getting an all new interior

Good god man, 1153? Nice. SCX4?

You know it Vic...

I wish I had the balls to buy one and try it on my wagon. My ordeal with the SCX has me gun shy now. Well that and some other minor personal matters LOL

Are you running Torco in it or your special blend??

[26redline]

No Torco, break drive in with regular Mercury gear lube, 1hr idle in gear, 1 hr at 1200rpm, then 4 to 6 hrs at 3k and under then I run the Neo Oil, haven't blown a drive since I started with the SCX-4 and using John Pfahl the Bravo Shop's oil, hads down the best oil I have ever used, IMCO said the gears looked polished, drive had 2 and a half seasons on it with zero issues around 130hrs ...

At 130 your saving fuel by getting there in half the time it takes everyone else LOL
