Maclin, glad you got 'er worked out.
Not wanting to latch onto your thread, but what is the ratio that you are referring to? Is there a calculation I need to do before switching props?
I just replaced my 3 blade 21P aluminum with a 4 blade 18P SS based on input from someone that had the same model/engine set up. Huge difference in performance (bow drop went from 8 seconds to less than 4, less likely to blow out, and no blow out due to mild side waves). I gave up about 3 mph... but still hitting 52. I'm hitting about 4900 at WOT (range is 4800-5200 on the 350Mag).
What were your rpms with the 3 blade 21 AL?
