I bought a lightning 21 ft. with a 502 chevy sea power 502 hp, lightning headers, with a Dominator set back pump stock impeller, droop snoot, and place diverter. I also added a high performance grate loader. The rpm is about 4,900 to 5,000. The manual on the motor says it should reach 5,200 rpm. The estimated speed is about 63 to 65 on friends boat whos speedo has been gps'd. Also the the motor only reaches about 115 to 120 degrees. I was wondering if adding an inducer would help top speed and pulling skiers. I love to ski but I also love to play at the end of the day. Also should I think about changing the stock impeller? Please give suggestions, will post pictures of boat soon because it is bad a$$ for an open bow family boat.
What is the best way to get the power from the motor out of the pump with this setup? One other question what is a realistic cost to have an inducer installed.
