Hey guys would love to get some ideas and opinions on the different lift characterists of the two cases at speed.
I have a 2002t I bought from Brack that has been running really good with my lightly warmed up 15" 280 and stock skegged sporty (1.87) combo. I have the 8200rpm race box and I have taken some small props to 8300-8400. Not 100% sure where the limiter finally kicks in, maybe someone can chime in on that too. I'm thinking it's 8350-8400.
Currently running 12" back on a Ally plate and 1" over pad. Boat is super stable and I've been able to push a worked 15x30 Performer SC 3 to 81-8200. Water pressure is still 22+ at speed and slips have been in the 8% range. I figure they should come down on a longer run were I can ease into slower.
Trae Appling is currently building me a JC case and I should have it soon. Question is how will the JC act as compared to the sporty? More/less bow lift, more/less stern? In general do you guys run them higher or lower than a sporty? How do they like the big diameter wheels? The sporty seems to like it but I have to get the engine up there!!
Thanks in advance for the info
