I've been flying under the radar for a while.
triple digits aren't expected, actually top speed isn't my goal. Cruse and acceleration is what I prefer.
I'd be happy with high 80's or maybe low 90's if I nail a good combo.
still need the scx drive though.

I just got an SCX / SC hybrid delivered friday. It was at IMCO's suggestion because the foot on the SCX drive could have some handling issues at high speeds.
I am seriously hoping it holds up to 900hp because its no cheap sucker.

I didn't know that was an option or possible? what is the hybrid?
NOT cheap is right.
Please let us know how it does for you. They (imco) said it should hold me fine.
Sean, still lurking just not too much to show off right now.
Blackhawk, not gonna cross my fingers on any numbers yet, 80 is still pretty fast to me.

Hey Tom, planning to do any bottom blueprinting/trueing while you're setting it up to maximize what she will give you with that much power?

Hey Mike, I did that when I pulled the mtr the last time. Straighten out the last 6+ feet. Talked to Jo before I did anything. I used the same shop that regelled the boat for me a couple yrs ago.
They said it's dead nuts on now. I can't wait to get this beast finished.
This will be the 2nd season it has been in my shop and not run.
I just keep tweaking on it until the money tree sprouts out back

sweet hardware!!
Did you have any problems with the hyd. rams bolting up to the ears on the back of the drive. I assume you had a bracket on a bravo before.

Imco steering, imco drive. Bolted right on. Actually, I was running a black hawk before the scx. It used a wing plate mounted on longer drive mount studs. Before that was a Bravo with an Imco rear cap . I swapped drives due to large HP jump this spring.
Apparently, Imco has a few different back caps for different steering set ups. They wanted to know what steering I had before assembling the drive.
