    Stratos ASX set up

    I just bought a ASX and I am looking for some info on how any of you have set up theses rigs or have seen them set up? Looking for prop selection and ptp numbers so I have a idea of where things should be. Motor is a 225 ram HO currently 2.75 below pad, 27 tempest and 12in plate, thanks.

    I think OMC made a prop for that boat and motor comb? Think it was a Raker propand had ASX on the side ?

    On the other hand it may have been a Tubro prop....that made the ASX prop, it been a while .
    You can call C &O Marine and ask them ...Todd set up a few of them back then ?

    I called C&O yesterday they said a 28 Raker or tempest lab. I'm looking for a deal on a Raker now but that tempest lab is like $1100 new and I can't find a used one. My boat guy says he thinks my tach is off because my motor shouldn't turn a 27 tempest past recommended rpms. I have access to diagnostic equipment I'll check on that next week.

    What gear ratio is on that motor? They had a 1.71 and a 1.85. Without knowing the gear ratio, it's hard to prop it.

    I would contact Mark Croxten (Mark's High Performance Propeller) He is a BBC board sponsor who has done a lot of work for people on this this site but most importantly he is the person who designed a prop specifically for the ASX. If my memory is correct it the prop goes buy the name TPX...As I said Mark Croxten designed a prop just for that hull so he should know something about set-up.
