Guys: I recently completed #932 with a 135 hp 0x290. I started with a Sterba 74x50 but it wouldn’t turn up. Replaced it with a 74x48 metal and it barely made 2500 just shy of 100 mph. Ed repitched the 50 down to 47. It, too, is just short of 2500 but blows through 115 mph. We’re still shy in my way of thinking. There’s a lot of hp in that last 200 rpm and I don’t want to go 115 mph! Ed’ll repitch it again but we’re looking now at confirming the tach reading and I’ll confirm the a/s with a GPS.
What are you guys running out there for props?
