Wee little 302. Haha, j/k sounds great! How well does that keep up with the 350s? We've got the 350, and it's good for atleast 53MPH in the 20' Horizon
@cobrawannabe 47mph in my four winns 190 horizon LE with the v8 5.o HO, thats with a 3 blade aluminum prop (14 1/4 x 21) can get up to about 50 with a 4 blade stainless
Not really buddy. You still got the Gimbal Bearing and U-Joints spinning, doesn't matter wether it's in drive or not. Actually, you really won't do much more damage putting it in gear. Only adds a (VERY SMALL) load to the components.
some people jsut dont know anyhting about boats, you SHOULD to have the lower unit all the way the water will drain out better too, try and put it in gear with it in the trailer position, the thing will shread into many pecies
It might be different with the exhaust going through the outdrive
