heater63, yes we have done some work with them. I do not have a specific data base however. We would work with the current performance numbers.

Long shot here, but any Herings in the program?

We have all the P5X's.
P5Plus is so uncommon, we don't keep them in the program.

Just curious I am running a 29 pitch p5x to 95 mph at 6000 rpm. Boat is a Howard Sportdeck. I think I could turn a larger prop. Should I go to a 30 or 31 or 32? what do you guys suggest? I would like to still have hole shot and mid range. Do you think I could hit 100 with a larger prop? Motor is a 600 sci that has been bumped by Whipple... stage 2 ... thanks Dustin!

If the HP is pretty flat in the 5600-to 6000 area, you may gain slight speed by going up in pitch. Your slip is 13.5% which is n't bad for that hull.
