    Any weight added is going to slow you down some question is would the poles be worth a few mph.

    I added a single Power-Pole to my 1992 361v and lost probably 2mph. Don’t mind losing speed. Power-pole has been one of the best investments I’ve ever made.

    check to make sure your bracket isnt dragging when on plane 2 mph is alot on a single Powerpole setup..
