Dealer says the motor height is right. They also claim that tachs are not accurate. They said that as long as my over rev does not kick in I'm alright. My tach shows 6300 rpm but they claim the over rev is at 6200 so I'm probably only turning 6000 to 6100 rpm. They also claim that I have the biggest prop they make for my motor. Talked to Suzuki and they were not much help either. Basically they only recited what is in the owners manual. They recommended I talk to another dealer in my area. So I called another dealer. As far as the cavitation plate he said it all depends on the boat that there is no set height that they are suppose to run at. As far as the prop he claims the tachs are accurate and said that the brand prop that I have on the engine is the one that gives them the most problem. He recommend that I go with the Suzuki prop (which the dealer I bought the boat from claims they dont carry those) because from their experience it is the best prop for that motor. He said they are a smaller diameter at 14 3/8 so I would defently need a larger pitch.
