There are some 10 year old posts about Outrage 18's being powered by the first-gen DF140's (2.38 gear ratio) on CW. I think I've seen 2 owners who were claiming 42-44mph WOT using an 14.25 x 18 4-blade Powertech prop. Applying the gear ratio change, we would require a 19p or 20p on the 2.59 gear ratio engine.

What are your thoughts on this Tom?
