    With the HO's I will be pretty close to the same speed as my 26, proped with 34's I should see 109, with great whole shot, I can go bigger and see some more on the top, but I want turn key.... My 800 was great, and the only other way I would go would be the ilmor's. I will have to wait to see how the end of year is, October is my deadline for options

    Congrats, UJ.
    If you get a couple big motors with Arnesons we won't be able to call you "Toner" anymore... :idea:

    Thanks jeff, I am thinking of sticking with the 496's and then in a year or two head over to GT or something like that... By the way I am running a 34" prop with 1.35 gears, and about 107-109, but closer to 107 all summer... hows that?

    Actually...awhile ago, Carlos, Scotty and I were talking about the 496's, and how nice a turn-key package like that would be.
    The only problem with your plan would be the drives. If you get the 496's now...you're gonna have to figure out what to do with the Bravos down the road (when you upgrade the motors).
    Either way...TFB Motorsports is a good call on the sponsorship.

    I upgraded to the XR Sportmasters with a 2" lower, the other 496 F29 has a 1" lowers I believe. Dave said he never proped it to it's full top end potential, I just know with this package, when someting break (if it Breaks) it will not be my problem. A true turn key 100mph boat

    Big relaiable single with a #6!!! I would go Turbo motor as it would be real quite!
    I am going on 12 trips and I have had not one issue.. Knock on wood!!
    Turn key and no drive issues. How can you beat it?? YOu can still run 120mph if you put enough motor in it!!
    IMHO

    YOU really need to talk and ride in Willie's 29. The single 1200 is mellow'ed down to 1000hp right now, and with the #6 its pretty much bullet proof. Turn key reliable, 120mph'ish, roll's over in SECONDS.....And only one drive train to be concerned about. Its the way to go IMO......
    CONGRATS by the way!
