I would like for someone to give me a 101 on when a shoe and rideplate needs to be used and when you are just as well off without one. I've read that they are good but have also read about people removing them and the boat runs better and faster without them.
I'm in the process of blueprinting the bottom of my 18 ft 1976 Hawaiian and should be re-setting the intake in a week or so. I'll be running about 400-425 hp but may throw some real hp at it later if everything works good. Like everyone else, I'd like to get every frickin mph out of it that can be had.
What is the optimal setup for using a shoe and rideplate? When do you need them and when are you just as well off without them?
Thanks guys!
