Arneson/ speedmaster spline adapter
Hi I was inquiring about the 19 spline to the 26 spline adapters for arneson and speedmaster drives to run the newer style props. And my question is I haven't found any reviews or saw any posts on experience with running these. My second question is the smallest pitch prop I found is a 26 pitch for a #6 with 6 blades and right now I am running a 24-3 blade I don't think I would ever be able to turn a 6 blade. I have a speedmaster 3 with a 1.5 ratio.

I had them. The only thing I didn't like, was that with them, on a 19 spline shaft, I had to run a very thin prop nut, as the adapter puts the prop further towards the tail end of propshaft. A standard merc prop nut, wont thread on far enough, to catch the nyloc thread portion of the nut.
As far as the prop situation, what is it you are looking for? More blades? More pitch? More diameter?

We carry, sell and have had sucess with the adapters. They sell for $399. Yes, they do step the prop back slightly. This has not been a issue.
Mercury make 5 blade props as well down to 26 pitch. Hering offers 5 blade props down to 26 as well.
We used to make 4 blades down to 23. The older props are harder and harder to find. In all actuality, when it comes to #6 style propellers, technology of production has really evolved more than technology of geometry.

Yes, unfortunately the $399 price is per adapter.
We have cut the standard #6 nut down slightly in height to give full nylock engagement.
