I found a NOS Prop on ebay. Claims to be a "Vintage 50-53 Fleetwin 7.5 Prop". P/N: 276866. My question is, will it fit and work on my '57-5.5? Are the props the same Dia. and Pitch and so forth?

Also found another NOS from a '54-58 7.5 Dia- 8" Pitch- 8.5.

My current prop has a good crack in it and this one is pretty cheap.

Thanks in advance.

I'm not fooling, I got more than I could use. I'll "pm" you my email address, send me a picture of the prop shaft of your motor. Instead of dropping dollars in those buckets in front of Walmart I'll send you a prop. Deal. Generousity is in short supply these days.

Put in a word to Santa to get me a parts washer.

Happy Thanksgiving.

I just looked up the prop part #'s and the one listed for the 7.5 is correct but it is not even close to the part # for the 5.5. The part # for the '56 E5.5 changes partway thru the run. So that makes it even trickier! I thought they might be the same. huh.
