Men that boat is Flying. I have a 1997 U-19 with a 5.7 stock and the best speed i have seen is 66 on gps runing in fumes and only one onboard. I could use some tips overhere LOL.

I put aluminum exhaust on there. That was a big weight savings.
Got it from CP Performance. If you have the Chevy motor, it will be a lot easier to find aluminum exhaust.
The Mercury Fury or Tempest Plus are good props. They hold the bow high and make the chinewalk a little easier to deal with.

What RPM are you doing with that prop. I am in the process of installing stainless marine headers getting it ready for the summer.
Right at 5000 really trimmed up.
I'm sure the 19 could crack 70 and probably handle better then the 17.
But I have only ran the 17.
This one has aluminum exhaust which took quite a bit of weight off the boat.
25 pitch Mercury Fury prop.
It has touched 69 mph (GPS) on its best day.
Currently changing the intake trying to crack 70
Very cool. Have you done anything with a U19 with a 275? Curious if they can hit the 70 mark.
