Default jet drive recomendations

So I'm building a 1:6 mk2 pbr it's going to be roughly 64inch long by25inch wide and I'm wondering what jet drives would be big enough for a boat this size

yes I saw their stuff out of stock and I don't think it would fit my build as its more of a race jet ie up and down trimable and no reverse buckets

Try Graupner. They have or had 3 or 4 jet drives in all different sizes... At least they used too.

I was going to post that earlier, then I noticed that the only one available is this one.
Impeller 49mm

Jet-5


I thought It might be too big.

I think I'll go with the graupner I also looked at kmb and only the 28mm was available now to pick out electronics. And thanks guys for the help I looked at graupner once but I must of missed it or forgot about it
