 Re: Gator tail /pro drive / mud buddy propRPM
I mean come on dude, you wanna impress people at least make it almost believable and say it ran 31 or something...but 38??? That's plum retarded. And you used a phone GPS app that's for sure 100% on the money. Ha...

 Re: Gator tail /pro drive / mud buddy propRPM
I Swear when I get back home. I'm going to put a stock gator tail on the back of it. And hook it to my pick up truck. And let someone drive my pick up truck. And I'm going to sit in the boat and whip out my video camera and GPS. And show y'all all It could even go faster than 38 MPH. Next week I need to check out that GT 35 According to all the feedback it's obviously is not a stock motor. I've never owned a gator tail ProDrive or any other type of mud motors. Only Mud Motor I've ever owned is the ones I Designed. One thing I learned about mud motors while designing them. Is Lawnmower engines. Will be a thing of the pass.

Nope could not tell. never ran a gator tail before that. Only difference I could tell is that it was a noisy motor.

Aircooled mudmotors are slower than outboards.

 Re: Gator tail /pro drive / mud buddy propRPM
Yes they are when there's a lawnmower Engine on them. There's other air cooled engines out there that doubles the shorts on torque and horsepower. The Briggs will still be an option. But if someone is wanting to step it up a notch they could slap one of these bad boys on their boat.

 Re: Gator tail /pro drive / mud buddy propRPM
July 2014 everyone will know what I will have on my mud motors. I'm sorry but I would be a fool if I revealed what brand it is right now. Be patient Please Good things come to those who wait. This is the last I am going to speak about my line Of mud motors till they release.

 Re: Gator tail /pro drive / mud buddy propRPM
Medium scale operation. The high horsepower motors will be Priced higher. Slightly different frame. Definitely reverse would not have it any other way.

 Re: Gator tail /pro drive / mud buddy propRPM
Hey guys! What y'all think of a jack plate that would move back and up at the same time . Would that help to find a sweet spot depending on the load in a boat?

 Re: Gator tail /pro drive / mud buddy propRPM
Changing the pin position on a GT does the same thing. You talking about a hydro jack plate?

 Re: Gator tail /pro drive / mud buddy propRPM
Going back or forth will not change the trim angle. you can only go down so far before you start dragging the belt housing or gear knuckle through the mud.
