What motor?
2004 225 optimax
Is the lower unit original?
What is the serial number on the motor?
I'd say the lower isn't original. I'll get serial
has good hole shot with 21p on it but it revs out wot. 25p not very good hole shot but turns up too like 5200 wot
SN: 1B117968. I'm just wondering if guy I got motor pieced the wrong gear case on it. motor runs great just can't get no wot speed
gonna try a 23p tempest plus see where that puts me
ya one boat length with that 21 on there
should over rev a 23 temp, 25 with one large hole plug in other 2 out aughta be right on unless someone put a 1;62 on it then 23 might work

shouldn't I be seeing more than 50 mph though
Are you recording speeds with a GPS?
yes I am
I have the same motor on a 20' Pro-Craft and run 68 GPS @ 5850 RPM turning a 25 Fury with all holes open. Good holeshot also
