 Stage 1 on a GTR 35???
What kind of performance gains could I expect with a stage 1 kit installed on a GTR 35? I'm running this engine on a 16'x48" gdsd boat and run about 28-28.5 mph with a lite load (myself) and with 3 adults around 24.5- 25 mph. Also, would this upgrade shorten the life of the engine? Thanks.

 Re: Stage 1 on a GTR 35???
3-5mph both loaded and unloaded and a quicker hole shot. You will notice getting a load up on step quicker and hold higher speeds at lower rpms. As far as life on the motor you will not lose enough on it to make a difference. You will probably get rid of the engine before you will wear it out. Gives us a shout and we can give you more details.

That is something we have noticed is that 05 blocks and older hold up a lot better.

Hey Terry that's way back when you had to hold his hand and show him how to run his motor.
Ha, two R&D Briggs blocks now a generac. I will say the generac has been trouble free so far
