    Hydrofoils

    A good foil should bring you faster on plane and must not rob speed. I'm using the allison foil on my SS2000 and that's the way I tested it. With the foil there is a huge difference getting the boat on plane ( faster). I verify my top speed is the same as running without foil. Ra

    I don't like the gearcases that came withh the Fast strike enginesv-4/6 and some 2 cylinders also. Those have a bearing housing with the two retaining tab/bolts, IMO the worse gearcase OMC ever built.
