Do you know what you know what your pad to prop center measurement is parkj5. I am still playing with getting mine set where I am happy after changing to lithium batteries.
Who would you recommend to send my prop to? I have never had one worked on what type of information do they need to decide how to set it up?
Mainly at Claytor and Smith.
Ok thank you for the suggestions I have dropped it another 3/16" but haven't got to go back to the lake yet.
So I am struggling with bow lift, it just seems like it will not lift enough to get the front of the hull out of the water.

With my old EFI I got 72 when it was new but the best I have gotten out of my ProXS so far is 67.
Ghost Comanche what size vent plugs should I be running in my 25p tempest.
How did you put a 250 on your 520 my hull is only rated for a 225.
The vent plugs in my prop have about a 7/16" hole in them. Sorry it took a little while for me to get up to the garage to measure.
I will check my plug sizes tonight when I get home. Thank you for the answer on the skid plate, I had seen online they are supposed to help with hole shot.

Yes my lower unit is silver. I hope to get to the lake this weekend and start setting it up my self. What rpm's are you turning with your 25p prop set at 2.25? Thank you for the information.
