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.

So what are you going to do? Are you going to goo with the SC or SCX? If you want reliability and top end isn't super important then go with the SCX. If you're looking for top end go with the SCX -4. It really all depends on what you want to do. If you want to boat and have a great time and not worry about your shit breaking I say go with the SCX, yes you'll lose 10-15mph. 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...
Glad your happy with it!So what was the weird things it did to your boat handling wise?

Hotboat has 2 drives that he swaps out every 20hr or something like that
