1940's - 50's prop ID

[jddenham]

This prop is 10" in diameter and a low pitch, labelled AMC 411.

Any idea what it fits and what it's main purpose would be with 4 blades?

It is a Michigan Wheel 11x10 to fit 1958-61 35-40 hp Elgin/West Bend/Firestone outboards.

Dang,

I need something along the lines of a 13 - 17 pitch for my 1959 50HP V-4.

This 12.5 x 17 looks like it might fit my fat fifty - any ideas?

Re: 1950's - 60's prop ID

I'm trying to find a suitable prop for my 1959 Johnson fat fifty V-4.

The first pic is a 1960's 75HP V-4 - not sure what pitch.

The second is a 1959 E-rude Starflite 50HP - not sure of pitch.

The third is a 1960's 80HP V-4 with no indication of pitch.

Should the pitch be stamped in actual number or a code that needs to be deciphered?

Will all of these or any of these fit?

Thanks for any info!

This is not my strong suit, but my quick research would suggest that the 75 and 80 hp props are somewhere in the neighbourhood of 10x12 (there are a million of them). The 1959 50 hp would obviously fit, but there are lots of pitch options. Most are around 12x14 where 12x17 seems to be the max.

I would expect that someone could tell you about the prop from its stamped code. I only have access to the Michigan Wheel database.

I just realised - You've posted this in the wrong forum. I can't believe this thread hasn't been moved to the prop section, yet.

The first pic in the series of three is labelled '307318' - does that mean anything to anyone?

That's an OMC part number for a 1960ish 75 hp. Appears to be about 10x13.
