Default Prop Suggestions for 26' AO

I have a '99 model 26' AO that I just got a motor built for. Its a 700HP, fuel injected, procharged, 509ci. It has the bravo one outdrive with the 1.36 gears. I am wondering what props everyone else has tried (brand, blade, pitch, diameter, etc), with a similar setup as far as motor and HP/outdrive and gear ratio. The boat was tested with a LH 28P which I was told didn't perform too well. The 28P, right hand, bravo one, 4 blade, 15 1/4, did really well. Any info would help and save me some time.

With 700HP you should bump the pitch up to a 30 or 32. Put a nose cone on the drive and you should be close to 100mph.
