I'm running a Borg Warner Velvet Drive 1:5:1. and 3 blade 17 x19 wheel. Mack Boreing sold me the bell housing and torque converter for the gear. I only had to make some slight adjustments to the existing stringers and used the existing shaft and coupler. You can see pictures of my boat and installation under albums in the community section (at least I believe they are still there). I find that the Diesel actually works better than the old gas motor with the tunnel. The prop rarely ventilates, the added pitch seems to hold the boat in the water better.
