Vector speed

[Capt.Insane-o]

Solid info thanks! Im a bit afraid to try and open up the ports on my FF being laser injected and all. I did minor rod slot and opened up the exhaust dump in the block and the plate to match the big gasket and found a promax ECU with raised limier and thats it. Hope it runs ok As for the prop? I managed to scare up a 9.5/10 lab'd 28 Hoss Triton after digging through some of your posts. It took forever to find and i hope it runs as good as it looks

I have never ever been disappointed by a Hoss propeller. This same set up with a 28 chopper is undrivable past 90. I run a 29 and a 31.

The promax box is going to be too rich, especially with a 5 petal front. The 88's in this motor are too much it starts to blubber at 7200 on a normal day, air temp was 34 today..and snow... we had a 27 Reggie out today with a freshy and it loved it.

Barry bring that thing up here next year and run it. We have one of the best kept secrets in the midwest to run.

Dave .my allison i just sold had a super speedie on it. I was thinking about running a 12" and a #6 on this Vector but there're kind of a pain in the ass with just forward.

Had a Bridgeport/Vector combo bitd, she would run right at 104 of the speedo, pre gps days, two jack plates, one hydraulic, one manual and a 30p 3 blade Hoss Triton? I also ran a 15 x 30P cleaver, got out of the hole better than the Hoss but the had it on the big end! My BP did have the A-13 box.

Get yourself some ear plugs and gas card......your gonna need them!

2 jack plates?? How much set back did you have on that?

xr6 lowers work great, but the skeg makes me very nervous.

Forgot about that!

You and your buddy were bad asses before i knew any!

You w/your 2.4 Vector and him w/his V-8 Vegas!
I remember one time at Bay Point you told me you were racing airplanes!

Wasnt it you that had the stars and stripes Viper?

That would have been early 90’s???

91 I'm guessing, just before the 2.5's came out. We did used to race a yellow sea plane that would land on the bay once in while, thing would only go about 80, but it was a cool thing to talk about. I did have a Stars and Stripes Viper, had one of the last inline 6's on it, two jack plates.....same ones as the Vector. Used to run a 26" chopper with that engine, best part of that boat was racing bass boats with V-6's and beating them. They would run in the 60's back then and here I come with a 115hp passing them up out on Berlin. Could run all day with that engine and two 6 gallon portable tanks. That was a fun boat.

We thought we were bad a$$e$ until we went to Norris lake and ran into a Vector with a Mod-VP, he was in the teens when that was unheard of. He ran by me and Kev, guy with the V-8 Vegas, like we were standing still.

Franken OMC was no slouch either Gator!

I have spent many years running Streams and Skaters, If you have any questions about set up, between me and gator, I'm sure we have the answer.
