SRTurbo04 Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 I will be at Alum at some point testing. What are you running now days? Gonna work on getting the ski ready to put in the water. Ugh lazyness though. Waters probably still cold? Leme know the conditions later have fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FormulaMatt Posted May 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 The Formula is back up and running. It is WAYYYY underpowered with this setup, but I needed to get something in it so I could use it. Hopefully it gets on plane... I will build another engine later this year. I'm going to repack my bearings now, then head on out to test. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Posted May 4, 2013 Report Share Posted May 4, 2013 im leaving for alum now. Im going fishing tho. I think ive got mine dialed in, I have a white/teal/silver chaparral 2150sx, with tinted windows. Did H/C/I with vortec heads, edlebrock intake/carb. Hits plane fast with great low end torque. being a deep V its never gonna be a rocketship, but i hit 63 last week at Buckeye. I have a buddy headed out with a 33' active thunder, it shoult hit 100mph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam1647545489 Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 Went out to Buckeye, made it 5 mins of boating and broke the outdrive. The alpha does not like the motor pushing it. Gonna upgrade to a bravo here soon but should be up and running again this weekend. It just broke the lower gear in the lower part of the drive.

I'm sure we can work something out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam1647545489 Posted May 8, 2013 Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 Lol why would I go backwards on hp. I'll upgrade the out drive before I did that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FormulaMatt Posted May 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2013 I kid I kid. Nobody in their right mind would do that. I would pop drive after drive first lol. I need a bigger prop. I put a 17 on it just trying to see what it would do and I am spinning to many RPM's. I'm thinking I need a 19p or 21p. With the 17 the fastest it would go is 41 on gps. I'm happy it was at least able to get on plane. I miss my stroker. I need a new motor fast....but at least I can go out... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahnstoermer1647545488 Posted May 10, 2013 Report Share Posted May 10, 2013 (edited) My boat will be getting a new horn this year for its upgrades. LOL. The trailer, now that's a much longer list.... what can I say, the boat is reliable at least! LEDs, new bunks, new tires and wheels are all waiting to go on. Oh and a new fender from the hit n run at Alum while back. Back to medium pimpin finally. Can't wait for another season to start!
