I`m just mad cause our season is 2 weeks long, I`m still in the garage assembling 2nd motor , I won`t make any power with an off the shelf cam, I still need to build two 4 cylinder engines to power my roots blowers and I`m stuck in a half car garage!
Enjoy your boating Jerk!

We had 80hrs on the old engines... Overheat doesnt really count as a 2-3 hour redo/blowup... Things happen with these boats. I already have 10 hours on the new ones. I rebuilt the entire boat last year, mechanical and electrical!! We spent $58,000 on this old thing last year and its finally getting to the standards I want it to be at!!

This back and forth seems to be out of season. The lake is thawed up here, let's run these things.

Much better with the 30 Maximus 5 Blades. Cruise speed came up 5-6mph but I can spin them to 5800 no problem at all. ZP is going order me some 32 Maximus 5 blades! Should be almost perfect then!
Thank you ZP for helping me get the props dialed in!!

Dragging the tabs a little in the pic to get rid of the flat water hop. But it is 60mph at 3500rpm's now with the new props!! The new props threw my carb tune off so now I get to go through that again. Ordering more jets and air bleeds until my 02 sensor is happy.....
Thanks for the help ZP you definitely know how to make these old Cigarettes pick up big time in the cruise department!! That was a 16mph gain at 3500 from the old props!!
