@Reed Lukens do you have pics of your proline 4 inch setup with the Honda gx270 and the hp500 pump? Also can you run through your reasons for this setup? I think a lot has to do with needing more water with your overunder sluice that you built on the proline. Any other reasons?

Do you have any issues with floatation with it since that power plant with a gast and modified sluice is far heavier then the standard set up. And I know with extra weight of wetsuit heater on mine the front likes to dip down a bit deeper then I’d like when there is no material on the sluice.

Main reason I ask is that that o have a Honda gx270 with an hp500 pump sitting around doing nothing and if it would increase production then I may want to try it on mine.

Look forward to hearing from you.
 

I did it for maximum speed with maxed out rpm. I did add a T103 wheelbarrow innertube under the jet and balanced it by putting in the right amount of air. All the guys loved it at the 2005 - 49erMikes Moderators retreat at my claim but these are the only pics that I ever took of it with the 9hp motor on it. No clogs with all of the added pressure and 49erMike really tried hard to plug it up.
