SEAPRO,

I dont think I have ever doubted that you can turn this motor into more than it is in factory form. You win, wow ,but how do you win when I agree....? you dont listen to what I write.

My point is do you think its worth it with his set up?? Let me know your thoughts on that?? Is it worth tearing down the motor to do this??

Or would he be better served with motor height or a prop change that takes ONE nut to take off and put back on.
I run a 1500xs on a semi tunnel. I can get OVER 10 mph speed change depending on what prop I put on the boat. Weight and height offer more gain as well depending where your at.

You can alter ports smooth runners put in reeds but if your 3 blade aluminum fishing prop is buried with the cave plate dragg'n then you'd be better served doing the easy stuff first.

I dont think this thread was looking for full tear down mods to get more speed. If the man comes on here and says he is looking to pull his motor down and start altering things then Ill be damned

Have a nice night.
