what prop are you running on your 22
trying to get some input to find out what props are good on the scarab 22. i have a 350 .30 over, stainless marine headers, small cam , msd , weiand single plane x-celarator intake, 750 double pump holley , procharger at 6 psi, and i think thats it. i have a 23 laser on it now sucks the big one. i have tried a 25 mirage not enough rpms plus didnt like to plain off and a balistic 26 the ballistic was extremely fast on this boat but it was still way to much prop hit 71 gps at 4400 rpms. not sure if i should go a different route than a mirage plus 23. just trying to see what other people have tried. i would like to see around 5000 to 5200 rpms max. any help would be awesome are there any advantages to going with a 4 blade or a 5 blade pros cons
thanks
thanks

Nose cones really dont come into play until over 80 mph, thats what they say , i have a imco -1 shorty on mine and it has one . I am running about 600 hp and i push a 30 labbed bravo 1 to 82 mph gps to 5200 . ( it gets to be a hand full )
