Best prop for a 342 with 496 HO's
 
Like the subject line says - what's the best matched prop for the boat? Completely stock now, likely will add Dana headers during the season. Looking for your guys expert opinions.

26 Pitch Bravo 1 Labbed by BBlades with Baja "cup". If you run the boat light, typically less than 1/2 tank with not a lot of tools, coolers, and crap in the cuddy you might be able to push 28's but wont be near the limiter. Depends on what you really want....

After the Dana exhaust with the same props, you might gain 1-2 MPH if you arent already on the limiters. Then for a few hundred you can send back to Brett to tweak if needed. To get the best speed, trim to the moon and give it a lot of tab.

Spin them in.... :)

No matter what, you are going to end up at or really close to 72 MPH
