ZX225 set up

[Rodney Bledsoe]

If been working on my set up for a while, just cant seem to find the right spot,
I have 200 HPDI, 25M prop some minor damage due to backing into a rock while unloading into a private ramp when the lake was low.

What is the average height for this motor? I'm approx. 3", water pressure around 20 psi, pulling about 5600 rpm. It was only doing around 5200 before raising it to 3".

Since raising it to 3" it's running around 60 mph on the speedo, was around 63 before raising. By looking at other post I should be doing around 70?

When you raise the motor higher does it reflect the water allowed into the speedo hole?

get a GPS because the speedo really doesnt tell you anything. Have the prop cleaned up by a good shop and then get some numbers. An out of balance prop is not going to run to its full potential and could cause more damage to your prop shaft or worse if it slings a blade.

Do you have the 2.6 or 3.3 liter 200 HPDI?

Where do I look to see the liter? Where does the average hight need to be. The gps is in next springs budget.

What year is the engine? I am guessing it is a 2.6 liter. The 2.6 is a very good engine, but it lacks the torque of the 3.3.
