Does it carry the front wheels any when you launch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springer Posted June 26, 2010 Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 for 60hp, that seems pretty long. i used to have 65 hp to the wheels and i was running a +4 with no problems. now, my tires weren't the best so that might have been helping me, but a +8 is prolly a little too long. pm sent.

Hell, I'm running a +4 with a stock cylinder stroker motor, and it's fine, even in the sand with, 10 paddle haulers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanddragon2004 Posted June 28, 2010 Report Share Posted June 28, 2010 +1 on the recommendation for a +4 swinger, thats what i ran on my 60hp 350 and it seemed just perfect! id prob stay away from an 8" unless ur spinning more then 85hp and are only going to drag, and plan to change the shock and or spring.
