    Xb 2003 2.5 280 best set up for top end ?

    HaHa Thanks. Every time I think I need a bigger boat im reminded on those days your the only one on the lake and that feeling of speed on water and how ya got there in an Allison. Since they are guaranteed for life and will never rot its hard to settle for less or a boat this size thats needs...

    I guess this makes it official

    Mine with a 225 promax has been great. Make sure they do a best job on that rebuild and since its being done get your revs to max out at 7500. 40-1 mix 91 or better merc premium pluss and you will be golden. Go SM gear case for best reliability. Coned 200,s are fastest but require way more...

    Xb 2003 2.5 280 best set up for top end ?

    30 is going to be fastest but top end will be probably more than you want yet. A 28 drag 3 is a very nice prop on an 03 with a 2 stroke. Eaves cuts a mean chopper for Allisons and over the counter stock performance 28 DR3 are great also some like to add a tiny bit of cup to them. i like mine...

I bet water was getting blown up the exahaust at higher speeds giving me a mist near compression in a cylinder perhaps. The last couple year i was thing she was just getting tired. now as strong as ever? wow haha I...

    Promax Falls flat at around 6000 rpm.

    Promax Falls flat at around 6000 rpm.

    I may have found the problem. Every bolt on the mid section and adapter plate was loose and 3 bolts missing!! Today testing saw water seeping in the back onto the pan. Maybe at higher speeds I was getting water were it didnt belong like a cylinder. haha Test again tomorrow night. red locktight...

    Promax Falls flat at around 6000 rpm.

    Im going to try new plugs first. Next to see if there's maybe a bad coil if the plugs don't fix it. Thinking wires, maybe a bad plug wire? Takeoff onto plane was pretty good. Would say not as snappy. Up to 60 floored up on on the pad to around 70, 25 trophy and thats all she wrote. Kinda odd...

    SS2000 Prop Selection

    They can be made to work but a 28 drag 3 by performance props right of the box is heaven!! Pulls like a 25 out of the hole midrange like a 28 and top end like a 30. Might be off a pitch or two on that summery but like that. lol i know lots of guys will say the same about them who have tried alot...

Allison foil and balls in your jackplate cavity battery as far forward in the compartment as possible instead of at the very back and counter weights behind the glove box. :] Thats how I always imagined doing. Thats how a...
