I am planning a mud motor build now. I am old, my boat is small, and there is no trailer. I will store the new mud motor in the shed beside my 6 HP outboard, and transport everything to the water in a truck. Once there, I will mount the motor on the boat and launch it by hand. So, though I would appreciate a bit more "oomph", I definitely don't want the extra weight and bulk of a bigger motor. Plus, I already own a barely used, bone stock 212cc hemi to work with. Could I not put a stage 3 kit in it, and then govern it to around 5000 RPM so it will make decent power AND last a long time?

You can try it. I think a stage 1 kit and maybe at the most a cam. You don’t need the billet rod or flywheel as long as you don’t rev it past 5k rpm. Also, don’t adjust the timing up on the motor.

My kit is the feather light surface drive kit, same as yours. The engine will cause the 2 bladed 9” prop to cavitate at takeoff then it kinda grabs ahold but then the engine just kinda lugs like it’s not making any power.

Then I start getting oil in my pulse pump and it starts to die. (I know a collection can would solve that). So 5000 seems to be a good number to abide by even if it can supposedly do 7000.

You think the twister is a better setup then the true' long tail surface drives?

But 13-14mph would be perfect. but wouldnt mind if i could get it up too 15-18mph.. Think thats possible with one of these? this def' help me choose next motor i want for runnin up the river.. shallow water, rocky bottom, but shouldnt matter, with the surface drive setup. I was coinsidering the "true- long tail" strait shft, but i like the twister for the fact its a bit shorter, and thats less weight, and also prop stays more "square in the water, instead of down on and angle. prob be better id imagine in swift river currents too keep prop strait as possible. Only thing i was wondering is about the prop, I think these come with a 3- ear, 1 size prop? or are there other prop size options, ? I seen the full' long tails have a 2 ear prop, and different size options.. Are there other prop options for the twister setup? im running same boat size about, and close too same gear/weight. What would you do too the twister too get a cpl more mph outta it? and oranything you would add too the setup too make it better? thou' it looks darn good, comparred too a regualr outboard.. i cnt wait too get oneand get it down on the river, and go up the shallows were nobody else goes! haha awesome video man. shows how tuff theses are..

I highly recommend the twister. I bought one last year and I could not be happier with it. The true long tails were way too long for the skinny Creeks that I wanted to run. When I bought mine it came with a stainless steel 3 blade prop. I purchased the two blade prop conversion kit at time of purchase because it was a little cheaper to do it that way. All of your questions about props can easily be solved with the conversion kit. You get more top speed, less vibration with two blade props. The kit will also come with three props (sizes vary depending on kit). You can very easily gain a few more mph buy fine-tuning your prop size and adding a stage 1 kit to whatever motor you're using (free-floaair filter, bigger jet, free-flow exhaust). I have a Honda 13hp (actual 11.7hp) with a stage 1 kit and it pushes my 1542 tracker 18mph when I'm solo with no load. Drops to about 13mph with (3) kids and a cooler. IT GOES EVERYWHERE THAT I'VE TAKEN IT from silty soft mud to <8" of water in a rocky creek.

Please can I get more info on what fuel pump set up you have
@codylanning1524 Жыл бұрын
On that one I had an Amazon low psi electric “thumper” pump. I don’t remember exactly what it was though. It was a 1-3 psi if I remember right.

What is your prop size and pitch?
@codylanning1524 Жыл бұрын
It’s a 9” standard like comes with the kit. I want to say it’s a 5 pitch but don’t hold me to that
