After seeing Waynes Supercharger transom mod for the 450 + hp supercharger boat..... I am taking my boat to Kevins at smokey mountain boat repair to do the same Suoercharger mod to my transom on my stroker too.....when it was made it wasn't really designed to handle 450-600hp now it will be......

    Looking forward to seeing the transom when I make it out for the dyno run. I hope to see you there also Paul??? I owe Gary lunch so I know I will see him and I look forward to that.
    Wish I could have made the White but with Moms health I was not able to.

    Paul educate me on this, not trying to be funny but why would the stroker transome need to be beefed up to handle more horse power? Are you beefing it up for horse power or a much heavier outboard?

    Wayne's Transom doesn't flex at all.......You feel it when driving .....when stiffened up its a much more solid feel than when is moving even the slightest bit.... driving mine and his and others back to back its very noticeable.... mine and every other boat I looked at did flex..... some worse than others.....Wayne had his beefed up for the SuperCharged sho and after seeing his and checking mine and several others at the rally.....I decided to get mine done before it got any worse and caused some stress cracks or worse its much more easy fix before it causes stress cracks and have the gell repaired too....I have mine at Hydro Tec now de-rigging it and plan on taking to kevins as soon as he finished with the mod he is doing now I am going to run it out there pick up one and drop mine off going to meet up with Billy too sure glad he is doing some prop work again!...I was just calling it the supercharger mod because that why Wayne had his done.....Idk maybe its age weight hp and torq but most are flexing..... Check it out

    The SHO actually weighs the same as a Mercury XS 3.0 and a little lighter than the Yamaha HPDI. The Super Charger does weigh about 20 lbs

    Eddie Flatt at Fastglass rebuilt mine with severe duty in mind. We did a full width transom, 3\4 coosa knee braces, battery boxes are full boxed with 1\2 inch coosa. It takes the pounding my home lake now withno problems

    That might be better but when the sho goes from 350hp to 450 and a 104 to 1XX.... it might change back to the supercharger mod...lol

    The SHO keeps impressing me....I cant wait for that supercharger!....

    Yes is not back at Performance but is doing props again. You have to supply the prop unless you want a Yammi Drag. He did a 2 P3's for me and as soon as Merc fulfills my order he'll be doing a chopper.
