In other applications it aids in planing time and slower planning speeds, reduces porpoise, helps cavitation while turning,

Due to motor height, I think all il see is faster planning time.

Does it affect top end speed or handling? Does it cause to much bow lift at high speeds. I have been looking at Bob's, wondering how it would do on my V-king. I have a 87 V-King with a 87 200 Mercury with some mods. Thanks guy for your input and brain power :-)
