Best All Around Prop on 34' Scarab III 330/TRS

What's going to be the best matched propeller for a 1984 34' Scarab III with stock 454/330's and TRS drives? I'm looking for decent holeshot, excellent/economical midrange, and decent top end. Is that too much to ask? Oh yea, it's gotta be cheap too! Thanks guys, look forward to hearing something soon.

Harry are you looking for props for your boat or someone else's? Do you still have the speedy II's on your boat?

I'd be interested in the 21P Mirage props if they would work on the Scarab with the setup that I am talking about. I still have the Speedmaster II's on my 35' Cigarette Mistress. I recently purchased this 34' Scarab as a quick project to play with.

Most likely for your set-up Mirage Plus propellers. Your drives, if original may be to deep for 4B props. Post some performance numbers on your current set-up and props. We can go from there.

Cig 35, I have an 85 Scarab III. When I had 400 HP I used Mirage 23P, and they were a great all around prop. I still have them if you are interested.

I have a set of Mach 26 4 blades that ran great on my TRS Fountain 8.8m with the same power. I'll make you a deal on them.

Lofty what diameter are the props? 4B props always improve performance, so if you can run them its great.
