 Speed I have a 18x54 with hunt deck rod box and a dry storage box two batteries and trolling motor pushed by stock 35GTR and was wondering if 23-24mph sounds about right(thats running with two people and nuthing else).I would like to get a little more speed but don't really know what would be my best option, such as carb, exhaust ect.. I was thinking about adding carb and exhaust but don't know what carb and which exhaust. Thanks for any help.

Re: Speed also, what is the condition of your prop and how many hours are on it? You're close to the speeds you would expect from this setup.

Re: Speed Maybe 100 rpm low, & 1-2 mph low, at most. That's a lot to ask of a stock motor to get that heavy setup 27mph with 2 guys & gear.
1st, exhaust
2nd, heads
3rd, cam or carb (I like cam)
& if that's not good enough for you,
4th, whichever you didn't do 3rd
