Yep that set up sound like something i`ve seen they work ok for a while then they start stayin open just a touch.What kind of slt is that going on and ya never side how many big red x boats are around?

[Fast Fred]

goin on an "X" class hull, in Red. so an SST60 powerhaed, one of them there Dynoed ones like ya see over in the Stuff for sale spot. they are sayin 101- 102hp at the crank. thats nice, but kinda Prostock, but thats good for a spec motor. finger ports, said to make 3-5hp per hole, thinkin a "X"class Moda may have them.and you can do more movin of the exhaust port in "X".

so it takes about 10hp to get to the prop shaft.

only did see one Big Red X hulls as of late, my own, i go up to the warehouse once a week to see her.

of course yous gots have a good idea that your hittin that 101-102hp or better
without the finger ports, cuzz it not just finger ports

[Tim Kurcz]
