Hi All, Just put together my first mono hull: 40" A.C. with a CMB .80. Looking for some tips on pipe length and prop selection. Got two pipes- Macs 1369 and 1382. Was going to start out with a X455/3. I run @ 4200 ft. elevation. Like to hear your suggestions.

Thanks,

Glenn :)

Allan, Thanks for the offer-but they may be too large for this altitude(4200 ft.). Think the others here are running X460's. I'll find out what they're using.

Thanks again,

Glenn

Terry, Forgot to mention in first post-got two other pipes I can try also- a 90 size Irwin and a 67/90 Cooper on the way from Martin L..I may not have time to try all the pipes I have before the weather turns to crap here. Please send the motor to Steve Woods-gonna have him go thru a bunch of motors this winter. I'll let him know it's comming.

Thanks,

Glenn

Glenn,

First, your sending the motor to the right person, second, try the Cooper QHP pipe @ 11.5" with X457/3 or X460/3 and CMB fat belly pipe

about the same and shorten lenght on pipes as to performance. Not sure about 90 Irwin pipe , never tried one. I'm @ 1000' elev., your quite a

bit higher, not sure there.

Thanks Terry and Mark, Decided to try the Macs 13cc super quiet pipe first-just seems to fit the best-telecopes nicley over the AB header and fits the cutout in the boat best and the clamp is already made. Sits @ 11.5" as-is may take 1/4" inch off the pipe so I can shorten to 11.25" if nec. I've got X 400 series 3 blade props from 54mm-60mm.

Appreciate your comments!!!
