Hello there. In my South Dakota BB that I have run for the last 4 yrs I have used 2 Johnson 6 volt motors useing a Battlers Connection gear box that has a 3 to 1 ratio. They turn 1 and 3/4 " props , 4 blade 25 degree pitch. This set up pushes my South Dakota right at 26 sec in 100 ft. Good pickup and stopping.For battery power I use 2- 6 volt 10 amp hr gell cell s for drive motors and a 1- 6 volt 7 amphr for pump.Hope that helps. Buddy
