Run it!!! Don't confuse opinion with FACTS...

(Anyone watch The Office??) Fact - it'll be better on fuel and oil (but run the best oil...so you may spend more depending on what you run now). Fact - The lower is more efficient than your old one. Fact - it makes the same power. Fact - your water intakes are higher (this may or may not matter depending on setup). Fact - It's more expensive to maintain. Fact - It's heavier

Opinion and Facts mean nothing....get the GPS out

Logic tells me that the boat should go no faster.. possibly slower....

BUT...

Somehow James . You manage to fall into the perfect set up all the time. So, the thing will probably run 98.9mph.

Rumor has it jimmy.. The Triad will be up north this weekend. I'm ready to line em' up.
