Good way to end the week! Expecting a fistful of pictures. Need some fuel for my own.

OK, so I now have everything I need to get her going. Picked up the motor last Thursday, mounted it Friday only to confirm I needed the wiring harness adapter to connect my old gauge to the new motor. My dealer ordered it Friday and I picked it up last night. I will get everything connected to the motor and then will be ready to go for a ride this evening...I hope! Wish me luck.

Git her done, Martin!

Got the adapter last Tuesday. Got everything plumbed, wired and installed. Splashed her Wednesday and ran for 2 hours. Been adhering to the recommended break in procedure. Ran her several more times over the weekend and, I must say, it handles like a dream.
The biggest advantage to me is it now will hold a steady speed at low rpms. Planes at around 14 mph, 3000 rpm =16 mph 4000 rpm = 24 mph 5000 rpm = 32 mph wide open not in the plan for a few more hours |
Need pictures....and you have to update your signature. I used to have a Powertech 4 blade on my DF140. Will be interested to see what you end up with after break-in. Nice job.

The prop I'm running is the same one from before, 13-1/4 x 21P ss. I have to log in another 5 hours and I'll be ready to go.

Nice Martin! Is that a manual jack plate?

Thank you! I'm really happy with the end result. I'm going to run some tape down the side where the bottom of the bootstripe was and take a picture to give a better idea of how much higher she sits in the water. I'll post it with an old pic.
