New Motor

[strokinrun]

Well went and spoke to banker this morning about new motor..he said get it..if i want it....question is on the 300xs do you want the 1:62 or the 1:75 ?

[spider1]

The 1.62s will be easier to prop.

[Stroker]

Speaking of motors. I'am looking for a good 300x to put on my Stroker and take the 280 off if anyone knows of one.

Thanks
Jeff

A good 300x is hard to find!!

[Stroker]

Hey Mark, sorry for hijacking your post. I didn't realize it until I went back and read my post.

Jeff

[Stroker]

Yeah your right Spider. I just decided to find one. A month ago I could of put my hands on three of them.

1.62's no question

[strokinrun]

Thanks ya'll

1.62 is my choice

[Muskiebri]

I agree... 1.62's for propping reasons

[Strokerdean]

I run the 1.75 gears, If I had it to do over I would consider the 1.62's because of the large pitch props required to run the big ###'s at low elevation. Where I am at the 1.75's work good, just no one to swap props with.

Stupid question here.....everyone is talking the 300x...the only thing I can get my hands on is the 300xs opti...difference? and I am looking at 5-7 mph gain?

[Stroker]

The 300X was last made in 05. It is a Promax motor. Doesn't have all of the Optimax junk on it and a very good performer.

Mine is the 300xs/1.75 sm.

Does it take the big block to make the stroker run the big numbers

I have heard some good #ers with 280's but I think the 3 liter will run the big#er easier and more consistant especially with any kind of load on board.

[Stroker]

I got the 280 on mine. Been 92mph so far. I would need a lot bigger prop to break 100mph with the 1.87 gears I'am running.
