Bblades is telling me that they always recommend spinning in on BT's for more bow lift. Saying that too much stern lift is an issue with these boats.

I completely understand. My PC's actually caused my engine failure. $20 flame arrestor broke apart and was sucked thru the motor - destroyed everything. Needless to say they're no longer there

Hmmm....not sure what I've got going on then. I was thinking that having the drives that deep was increasing my slip numbers. I'm running close to 30% slip @ WOT.

I haven't. I do think the boat needs bow lift though I can almost feel it plowing at speed. I'm wondering if the spacers were pushing the bow down?

Drive height
What are you guys running for drive height on your BT's? Anyone know the approximate depth they are below the running surface directly in front of the drives? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
