My top gear says 6.71 38T 1.12 LH
Bottom gear says 6.71 34T 1.12 LH
Am I correct that I have 1.18 gears and 12 degree box?
To gain something close to 1,000 RPM, with my set up, what gears should I be looking for?
Anyone have a used set?
Thanks for the help, and look out Dan, Im gunning for ya!!!!!!
Be good, Jim
Jim,
Your gears are 1.12% overdrive, the 38T & 34T is the number of teeth per gear, the 6.71 is the made on date June of 1971 in your case. Sorry on the degree you'll have to measure the angle on the 34T gear or find the number on the housing.
Personal thought here if you can't spin 12's 6000rpm I'd look a little closer at the engine. 4900rpm with 12's and an 11-1/2 x 15p prop sounds a little off to me, I'm not familiar with your boat though either.
JMO,
Loren
