I have a 2009 Puma FTD. I recently had a my L2 lower unit go out and I’m having to back with the magnum lower unit. I have been running a26 fury and detweiler hydraulic jackplate. Anyone have any experience with this setup and lower unit and what I can expect as far as numbers andwhat prop works best? It has always been an upper 70’s mph and from what I’ve read it looks like I can expect to loose a couple mph on top end.I’m not real excited about that but I guess this one is supposed to be more reliable, hoping to not loose too much. Thanks

27 razor 3 ran the best for me when I made the lower unit switch . Boat was a 08 cougar . Tried quite a few props .

Ended up running fair . A larger diameter helps .

That lower is much better in grass though .

Appreciate the help Madgaffer. Hopefully it won’t take too much testing to find out what works. I figured not many people had this combo as most cats are Merc powered. If anyone else has any input, or knows a prop guy that may have knowledge with this set up I’m all ears. Anyone try a Bravo I XS? Thanks
