[QUOTE="Plasticmotif, post: 328002, member: 11960"] [img]https://sphotos-b-iad.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/1229851_10100115916998728_812166283_n.jpg[/img] Well, with the wife/kiddo and me in the boat it planed out. Definite performance increase! And! I caught a fish in a really over fished lake. No backfiring issues in the water. I think it needed back pressure on the exhaust. Runs great. Not over-revved at all. My tach isn't in yet. Whenever it gets in, I'll start fooling around with getting a better prop. Mine's in need of replacing. Lastly, I'll need to play around with my trim when by myself and the idle setting isn't exact but, the boat is doing well. I don't know that I could be of any help. I think any OMC motor from 1986 to 2005 will work. I think any 20-25 can be turned into a 30. Just have to find the parts. [/QUOTE]
