I have a TZX190 with the 175HPDI and I have my prop/pad height set right about 2.5". I'm still playing with the jackplate and need to get my prop worked, but currently with a full load, full of fuel, 2 people, empty wells I'm running about 66.1 GPS at 5600RPMS with about 14PSI of water.

im got my boat set at 1"and 1/2 below pad and still have about 16 psi. im running 70 gps speed. but when i asked todd about set up he told me i need to 3" blow the pad. well that slow me down, or well i be the sweet spot and pic up more speed and less cradle rock.
My boat is the same boat sort of just diff model # zx 195 and I run 2 and 1/2 below pad, same prop as you same motor same boat. 70.5MPH little to no walk, easy to drive out of.but I would start at 3 and go up 1/4 at a time. Just my opinion, and I am no boat pro.
thanks for your help i will try it this weekend
