From what I know this boat is a 21' Stallion and had a BBC in it. The prop is a "stiletto" and looks like a surface piercing of some sort. It has an actual prop shaft on the lower unit and looks nothing like any alpha or bravo I have ever seen. I'm building a motor for it and am curious what this drive can is and can handle. Any help is appreciated!
Kinda looks like an old speedmaster

I don't know anything about them but they been around along time and I've seen them with some pretty big hp
love the prop thrust gauge on page 132
that's not something you see anymore
I had one on a 24 tunnel hull went 100 never a proplemAttachment 377938
Sternpowr I reasearched them before i bought my current boat that has one on it.
I know of people which have put 1200 hp thru them with no problems.
And many are running 600-900.
Of course a lot depends upon how well its taken care of.
And if there are any internal problems already.
Rust on bearings pitting etc.
Cool boat how fast what power
What is dimension of crank centerline to propshaft ???

Previous set up with 105 ran 80 mph but my drive is to low in the water prop shaft is 6" below bottom and I have the shortest drive they made so am changing X dimension this winter also. My OD guy says I should pick about 10 mph from that!!!
these drives are faster with higher X dimensions, the hydrodynamics on these lower units are really bad. Mine has been highly modified and does not look nothing like urs or a stock lower???
good gears are VERY hard to find these days. New factory gears are JUNK!!! All ready went threw a upper and lower set with no real big power!!! Old 1s were made by Richmond gear and are the best to get if u can find them. GOLD!!!!!!
U probably have the good
if it haven't been rebuilt lately!!!! Make sure it always has oil in it!!!! And u should have it check out before u put some serious power in front of it. U don't want to hurt it!!!
i can set u up with the guy he's in OHIO I think. Very good dude!!!
do u know what gears are in it???
Are you asking me or the original poster.Quote:
