[57fairlane500]

A little video of breaking in the new wrap around 46 motor in a Sport boat.

Video.

Its not great quality, but you get the idea.

looks good,wheres Roth holding the camera?

 

[Glenn Quarles]

That looks really good guys! I can't wait to see it when you get the broken in and find a prop big enough for it!

Nice job guys!

I think we found a replacement for the disc rotor Piccos. Looking good buddy.

Looks and sounds good the way it is.....although rough race water may be trouble.....

 

[Mark Stein]

If thats breaking it in... look real out. Looks good.

 

[Jeff Barnhart]

Can't wait to get mine finished! Looks good.

 

[Glenn Quarles]

Kelly, what prop were you using in this video? What all props did you try? Any idea on what prop you will end up with after the motor is broken in?

Thanks!

In the video it was a 1455/3 at 4.2 pitch. We tried several different props including 1457/3, 1655 even a V955/3 with way too much pitch in it. It pulled all of them but the V955 with no problem.

This motor is going to make us take a whole new look at what props we use on the sport boats so I cant say just yet what we will end up with, but it is going to be fun learning what all it will pull. I will keep notes and update anyone that is interested in what we find during testing. I cant wait to see this thing run once it's broken in as we have less then a half a gallon through it so far.

Kelly,

I would work with the 1457/3 if I was you.

Less cup but more center of blade pitch in it.

You may want to reduce the diameter a little bit so it

does not ill handle in the corners. Also, you may want to look

at some two blades again. H-18, & 1457.

Nice Set Up,

Mark Sholund

Hey Mike I'm not holding the camera Brian Buass is. I couldn't make it down there. The boat looks great! It needs more prop and it will be a team effort its nice when you have a nationls winning boat and a couple others to compare it to. Greg

 

[LarryConrad]

Kelly, What pipe are you running?

 

[57fairlane500]

A carbon fiber pipe that Brian Buaas built. It has similar dimensions to the MAC's 10cc pipe, but rings much better. I have an updated version of it that I am going to try and test tomorrow if the weather will co-operate.
