    hi all
    been offered a hamilton twin stage jet unit been standing for some years but turns very easy
    i would like to power it by a 2.8 isuzu turbo diesel
    would i need some sort of gearbox to get the revs up on the jet unit for a
    good top speed
    would like to keep the power plant small as going in a 17ft boat for fishing
    thanks
