    What's wrong with ETEC 200?

    I am not having any problem at all with my 3.0.It will run mid 80s with some to spare (no nose cone) and handles great.I think the 300xs would be awsome on the 20 footers.

    300 XS on Grand Sport

    I love the way my handles with the 3.0.With four people and a full tank the rear rub rail sits level with the water.

    How often do you need to freshen up a 280

    A drag boat racer/dealer/mech told me 120 hours.He also said why put new rings on worn pistons.He replaced both at the same time.Pricey though.

    Grandsport setup with 150hp

    I would use the 24.I am pretty sure your GS will be faster.There are GS around here with newer 150s running in the 70s.

    Ran my Grand Sport with the new engine!

    It wont do one of the low speed turns you can feel in your stomach right now.Slips at 40mph trimmed down in a normal river bend if that explains anything.

    Ran my Grand Sport with the new engine!

    Boat drove really well with the current set up.Just slips bad in turns.Would the cone help that as well?

    Ran my Grand Sport with the new engine!

    I have heard from a number of guys that have ran GSs into the 90s with no cone.I still think it would be money well spent though. Titus or Bobs?
