3 wheels spinning @ 5800 RPMS is going to paint a really nice picture behind her. Great Job, I'm extreamly excited for you.

The Trans is a ZF85A you can run them standard or CR.
They also give you a drop of 6".

I just drilled and dry fit my trim tabs. The last thing to mount is the steering cylinders. Then all the new reinforcement plates on the inside of the boat need to get painted. Next I will seal and mount everything back up and wait for the motors. They should be complete in a couple of weeks as we are waiting on the CNC Brodix heads. I am going to set all the motor mounts with dummy blocks to keep things moving.
I believe I will see speeds in the triple digits.
Thanks

How much length is required for transmissions over the bravos? And are you putting a crash box on the center motor?
Great job btw
