Can someone please explain the charts. I'm trying to decide on an impeller and think this is what I'm looking for.
Thanks

How much HP do you have ???
What impeller are you running now ???
How big of a boat ???

77 Apollo

425 Horsepower
A Impeller now
19 Feet - Light Hull
I ask because I was told to go to AA and am not sure that's what I need to do.

How many rpms are you turning the A2 impeller ???

Not there yet. The pump is being rebuilt and and motor as well and we're trying to match the two up.
I'm told that I'll get 425 HP.. Although, it's and OLDs - Go easy. Maybe why I should go with A2 right? To keep the RPM's down?

A2=Economy, power, and tons of thrust per rpm

You say 425hp, but at what rpm ???

77 Apollo
08-17-2005, 05:33 PM
Don't know. I havn't had it on the water yet. I guess I'll really never know until I do, right? I guess my basic question is.. Can a mildly built OLDs turn an A2

Squirtin Thunder

An engine does so much work at a sertain rpm thats how you get hp.
So to just say you have 425hp is quite open it could be at 1000rpm or at 8000rpm. So to help you pick the best impeller you need to know where it does the most work !!!

Which is where the charts come in?
I'm starting to get it. Sounds like I've got some trial and error ahead of me.
Thanks

So shouldn't you have 859 HP at 6200 with an A2? Am I reading it right?

Just because an engine can spin a given rpm that does not mean it will do it turning a Impeller !!!
And I don't make 859hp I make 618hp !!!
