Default Re: Photos of my 84'

Hey Maco, Thanks for the tip on photobucket I will try it in this reply. As to the 90hp, with a 13.75 x 17 prop it will turn 4600 - 4800 and do 20 to 22 mph. Switched to a 14 x 17 prop rpms dropped to 3800-4100 but speed went up to 30 mph, Can anyone tell me why this happed, is it using torque instead of hp. They called this motor the tower of power and I see what they mean. Little hard to start but runnnnnnnns for ever when it does. If it were to start giving to much trouble I have in mind a 140 upto a 200 in mind. If new it will be in the 140 range dollars wise, but if I felt good about a used one it would be in the 200 range.

Heres tring the IMG link from photobucket,
