    Still trying to get parts together for my 21' eliminator.
    I am going to run a 540 dart motor about 750-800hp
    10qt dooley pan, Aggressor Bronze B cut impeller.
    ? is which cooler should I go with?
    I have never had one in a boat before but I never cruised for more than a mile or two and only at about 3500 rpm max on my last jet boat, with short 10-30 second burst of WOT.
    This new boat I would like to keep it WOT or close to it the whole time :lightsabe
    A friend of mine runs just a dooley 10qt pan and no cooler on his similiar daytona with no problems yet and he has his foot in it all day long :idea:
    Just do not want to kill my new motor the first year out on the water

    I will be when I get mine together. I have a couple of pictures I took of a jet at Eliminators shop. They're not very good but it's a start.

    May not have room for a oil cooler with the 200 gallon gas tank you gonna need to run wide open all day :2purples:

    The key word here is yet...he could be having main brg. problems and not know it...untill it's too late. If he's just running a Dooley, and footin it for more than a minute or so, I can guarantee he's having oil temp issues, which will lead to brg. failure. Go with the cooler. There's no reason not to.

    In a tunnel you probably don't have roon for a block mounted cooler, so go with a remote. Dan Olsen is the best I've seen or used. Budlight

    Is there a certain size I should be considering?

    About 18", but sometimes space dictates smaller. Fit what you can. Budlight
