Default Imco shortie on an SCS..?

Anybody ever done this? I have a 1997 Scarab SCS with the 454 Mag, just in the process of "freshening" the engine and installing a Procharger, wondering if a -1 or -2 Imco shortie might help....?

I put a 1 inch shorty on my scarab 22 , and picked maybe 1 or 2 but it became much more stable at speed and did not have to trim up as high . I did have to go to a 4 blade prop scott

What kind of power do you have? Which four blade?
