I'll put together a better vid and post it when I get back working on it! I've got a 21p prop right now and I'm gonna try it first... Hopefully it will be pretty close otherwise I'll be saving for a new prop also. What prop were you running on this engine when it was on your boat?

I ran a 21P Thunderbolt (Mirage Copy) and a 23P Tempest with vent holes for holeshot (signature picture) When I switched from your 250 EFI to the 250 XS I lost about 3 MPH. I took a old Tempest 25P and had it customized to get my MPH back. They knocked some of the pitch out and cleaned up the edges. I think I would try what you have first. It had ought to be close. When in doubt, trim it out...

Nah bud not quite finished yet... Had a lot of stuff come up I've had to take care of the last few months with family and work. I actually started back on it a couple weeks ago. Have the hydraulic steering installed and bled now. Bought a set of used Lenco trim tabs for $10 that I've installed all but the switch. I've started cutting the panels that will fill the area where the I/o once was. I really don't have much further to go at all! Just have wiring and reinstalling bilge pumps and things of that nature. Only thing I'm up against now is me and the wife are going on vacation at the end of the month for a week and a half to see her family in Cali. Going to work on it some more this weekend but not sure if the maiden voyage will be before the vaca or if it will have to wait till after. Once I get this thing on the water we'll have to meet up so you can see the finished product! I think it's coming together quite well!

She doesn't like the big black Mercury Outboard from the looks of it. LOL! Yes I see progress. Glad to hear your still at it. It won't be long now. Have a good vaca. Cali is a long haul. Lots of free radicals...
