    Starting floor stringer repairs

    81 predictor setup?

    im also building a predictor. i did some asking around and these guys are very helpful. i dont know if this helps but im told that a predictor with a 6" jackplate adjusted right with a stock 150 should run around 72-75 with the right prop.
