Congrats on the new to you power, numbers don't seem to bad to me.
Just did a long run in the OX and I can't wait to fill it up to see what the numbers are?

Thanks guys!
The motor is more responsive and quieter than any I've had before. So far, I've ran about 25 gallons of fuel with Sea Foam mixed in it. Still got the same plugs in it since we brought it home. I'll change them this week and see if there is any difference. The motor had been sitting in a boat shop for about 5 years. Someone brought their boat in and wanted more power. The shop owner had it in the show room for a little over two years till someone else bought it to go on a boat they had not yet purchased. After making payments for about two years and still no boat, they decided to try to recover some money from it. The shop owner was more than happy to get it out of the way. He acknowledged the prop had been robbed over the years, said to run the motor, tell him the numbers and he would get me another one. We'll see!

not bad but you need to get little more RPM's out of those loopers. get it to around 5600 - 5800 WOT.

I used to run a 15x17 SS prop when I had that exact motor. Can't remember what the top speed was but I am thinking 42 mph at about 5400rpm's. It seemed like a good fit.

Not bad Tsub. A 17 pitch would probably get you more RPMS wouldn't it?

The thing that always threw me on the EAGLE series is the sound they make starting up. Them starters sound funky to me with the wirling sound.
