The d series are 3 blade front and back. If I change my props I'm thinking about going with the i4 set which replaced the d series and has a 4 blade and a 3 blade. Thinner aluminum from what I've read but better performing. I have to research some more before sinking the $750 on a set.
With the 5.0 gI it shot up quickly. I expected a bit of a lag with the carb no instead of the tbi. The boat feels stronger though. It just takes a while to get the rpms. I bump the throttle up a little and the rpms climb slow and steady. It can be 10 to 15 seconds before the revs peak and stop increasing. Like I said... the best way to describe it is starting a manual transmission up a hill in 3rd gear. We'll see. I'll know in a week or two if I'm going to drop down a size.
