What prop should I change to?

homelessbob · 08-31-2009, 09:57 PM

I have a fountain with supercharged 502s, my props right now are 34p 4 blades lab finished, and hitting the rev limiter. Anyone have any recommendations on which props to go to next? The Boat is a 1999 Fountain Fever 32'
Thanks

Change drive ratios. I think you can get 36's now though.

Try some 5 blades in the 34 pitch range.

Can you give us any more spec's, Mid range speed and rpm and wot speed and rpm.
A gear change maybe the way to go but it will work your motors more if you are just bumping the rev limiter than the 5 blade may work well for you.
