Re: prop

You will lose some top end to plane quicker. It's a trade off, how often do you run at top speed?? Do you do any tubing, waterskiing, etc...?? Go with a prop that has 2inches less pitch, for instance, if you have a 23p prop on there now, go with a 21p. Don't forget that you have to stay in the max rpm operating range, DON'T GO OVER IT!
