No doubt! The TVA does a great job managing their river and lakes. Wish I could say the same for the Army Corps of Engineers. They have done a decent job this year but dumped three feet of water over time last year-by mistake!!

Well, I put an MSD distrubitor in and changed my initial timming and kept the 34* total. Not much changed. I does run good though. I'm still looking into some changes. I will keep you guys posted on that.
80 mph with a b1 26 at about 5700rpm and heavy on the trim.
Funny thing is this same prop and same rpm if I remember correctly did 74 with my 540. Seems weard, I can't imagine that my slip went down???
Hey Greg only one ramp open at Van's tavern

Nice, was that on flat water? If so then you could pick up more with some chop. Good Luck Tom.

80 @ 5700 with a stock 26 B1 is vary good for a big single.
If your done messing with the power send that prop to BBlades. They can modify it for more bow lift; you will use less trim and gain 1-2mph.

Tom, I heard that one ramp won't be good for long. My prop arrived today so I will be out some time this weekend. Give me a call if you head out.

Tom I know the boat can do 85 with the prop worked out a bit and with a moderate chop. You have to let it all hang out atleast once to see the capabilities of the boat.

we'll see what happens when the props get swapped around and or tweeked.
I don't mind a wild ride and chatch'n some good air ,but over trimming doesn't seem/feel right.
Maybe I'm not as good as I thought
