I am working on my senior project at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. We are using a 1997 spx hull with a special power plant with specs as follows:
Max rpm: 7500
70 hp
116 ftlbs torque
Stock pump will be used. I was thinking of using a prop off a 1994 spx only because it would be easier to source given our budget and time frame, instead of a custom pitched prop. I know the 94 spx hull is not an x4 but I'm afraid a prop off a 95 xp will put too much load on the motor. I am not sure if its the same size pump or if it will be best for low end torque either. Any suggestions or experience would greatly appreciated. We are working on a very tight budget and timeline. I was also thinking of impros. I already tried contacting them but have not heard back.
