Ok I have a ?? for you guys were or what holes are you using to bolt your motor to the j/p
I'm now at 2 5/8" split and it seems to me that I'm running out of j/p
here is what mine looks like
seems to me that the motor needs to be taken up a hole or 2 if I want to go any higher, I have not ran the boat since I just moved the j/p up this morning from 2 1/8" to 2 5/8"
run it first before moving it up more. and yes you'll have to move the motor up on the j/p if you want to go higher. Youshould try it everytime it goes up and watch that water pressure.
btw, It's Sunday morning.....GET OUT OF HERE AND GO FISHING!!!!
I'm outta here

LOL My home lake is going to be a zoo today so I'll pass on the fishing but I'm lucky I can fish during the week since I'm retired now and just take care of dad
Thanks for the reply and GL today BJ
I have an 06 20i and I moved mine to the second hole from the bottom which allowed me to go 1" below the pad which is where I'm currently set at. Didn't see much of a difference going up until I got to around 1 1/2" below the pad. Thats where things started to change. I had my 25t1 b/p by Mark and the last run I made with this set up was 76 . ?? gps with full tanks by myself at 5950 rpm with high humidity . Still playing with this set up and stilll have good water pressure. Can't go any higher where it's at now and don't plan to. I've heard that 1 3/4" below the pad is optimum for the 20I but that wasn't the sweet spot for mine but did get me in the neighberhood.
Mine are mounted on the exact same holes. There is about 2 7/8" space between the splits currently. It was 1 7/8" between from the factory and ran pretty good there with stock everything.
That's where they come in from the factory and most have around a 2" split. You can do as stated and move the engine to get more height.
But watch it, you will begin to loose speed and WP soon.
I got it set at 2 3/4" split right now and it looks like I could go up 1/4" more if needed I have over 20psi of water right now at 5000rpm's, my home lake was a zoo yesterday so I could not really run it to see if my rpm's went up or not I was only getting 5500 at wot with my spare prop and only getting about 5600 with the 25T-1 that came on the boat.
I'll be down the hill on wed's and will be about 500' above sea but on a small lake so I'll run the prop thats on it and see if my rpm's went up, I'll be on Lake Mead at the end of the month for a TOC and I'll spend a week there and take 1 day to set it up with the 25T-1 that Mark just B&B
Thanks guys for all your info
Also just for anyone that wants to know I just checked my prop to pad and with the motor bolted were it is and the J/p slpit at 2.75"
My motor to pad is 1.75" below right now
Just got back from the lake and WOW!!
Just ran the 25T1 that Mark B&B'd. It was on the 20I, with 1/4 tank of fuel in each side and light gear. One 200lb. man, it ran 77.4 GPS @ 92 degrees and 90 % humidity. We truned 6K and it handled like a dream. We had it as high as the plate would go. We may have to come down a little when fully loaded, but we'll see.
Can't wait till it cools off and we can fly.
Let us know what your final numbers are fully loaded and 2 guys. Thanks.

WOW is all I can say, I sure hope I get close to that when I put my prop on
on a side note this is what I got yesterday with my spare prop thats a 25p Tubro lighting
water temp 79.2
air temp 80
water psi was about 22
rpm 5700 so I got 200 more r's down the hill
max speed was 71.60
I may have seen 72 but I ran out of lake
this was at about 300 above sea
