Default question about drives and lower units

The question I have is can you put a #6 or #3 drive with herring prop on a single engine boat. I have a 28ft boat twin step and knotched transom. It has a 502mpi with m1 procharger at 5 pounds of boost. I would like to maybe run the hering prop or hydromotive prop and any advise would be greatly. thanks for the help.
