 40 Horse Prodrive
The 40 is impressive! Just sold my 37 (stock with gutted exhaust) and upgraded to the 40. Huge difference in power in all ranges. I only have empty speeds so far, but I picked up about 3mph on top end. Holds 32 in deep water and ran 33 in shallow. Pro-Drive 18x48 boat. Everything is in stock form including my prop. Did anyone ever figure out the bow rope storage dilemma? https://youtu.be/B7rnjRd9jZ8

 Re: 40 Horse Prodrive
Nice, it is impressive, in stock form it was strong on my 1854 SBX CC tank.

 Re: 40 Horse Prodrive
I have right at 100 hours on my 40 briggs pd. it's a lot more responsive than my old carbed 36. and I picked up a solid 3 mph or so. [mine is a gen 3 lower unit] 20'x44'' skiff.
it does burn more gas, but i'm running around at 4800rpm's vs 4200rms. lol
hadn't been frogging all night to see if it's better on fuel just running low speeds.

 Re: 40 Horse Prodrive
Mine drinks more fuel as well but I’m good with it because the performance is there

 Re: 40 Horse Prodrive
More compression Cam has more lift and duration. It will use more fuel when the Throttle plate is WFO.
