New Hub in Quicksilver Prop. How to break in?

[garyhigh]

Just had a new hub pressed into my 23P Quicksilver that helps a 150 Merc propel my 17.5' Procraft. I have a few Questions:

1. Is there a procedure I should follow before I run it WOT?
2. How much torque should I apply to the prop nut?

Thanks in advance.

I have a 90 and the shaft is probably very close to your diam. 55 ft-lbs is recommended in the book. Yours probably will work just fine at that value.

On break-in, never heard of such a thing. Go for it.
