MJ - I plugged the numbers into the prop calc and your right on the money 5600 - 5800 rpms to get that speed with 2:1 ratio, 15p prop and 12 -15% slip. All you need now is a good tach or an adjustment on that one.

Did you put a 2:1 on it BS? I thought all of the 2.4L's and 2.5L's were the 1.87:1's?

yeah - I put the 2:1 on that motor (from a 1991 2.0L 150) so MJ's sea tub could get on a plain better.
