How ya been
Its been a while, I don't come on here much these days.
I see the slings still working great.
I thought maybe you sold it as there was one very similar for sale in Chicago area.
Heard Mitch took great care of you, you should see the 377 after he gave it a once over... what an awesome guy.
I tried a set of maximus way to much prop (diameter) and it might as well be a #6 cleaver it weighs a ton.
Spool up suffered big time.
thanks for the insight on the B-max drives they have been flawless since Ron Bender fixed all of Dean's BS
With the B-max drives
its slow now
stock 30' B1 5200RPM 92-93gps (4) onboard with coolers & lite fuel
I'm fine with that, turn the key and drive.
Take care

PS if you want to sell those herrings let me know I'm looking for exactly that pitch and style
they were the best Wheel I ever had but with the 1:30 B-max I couldn't spin them.

Found a set of B blades labed 26 5 blade Maximus But I think they may be a little to low of a pitch for stk 500 efis and 1 in imco,s A stk 30 4 blade is not enough and a merc raceing labed 31 s hit the rev limiter . I think I'll need a labed 28 5 blade.

I've looked at several dyno sheets from other members who built stroker motors out of the 500efi and shared the info. The manifolds don't contribute to HP after 5300 or so. I just went through the fuel system and had the injectors cleaned. In 90 degree heat, mine seems to be running strong up to 5200 and then seems to hit a peak. I'm thinking of trying a set of 32 Herrings on mine.
