What props on 460?
 
Anyone running ProChargers on twin HP500's with their 460? Just wondering what the right props are for this set-up. Thanks in advance.

Try 32's and congrats on the new boat :)!

What year is the boat? The hulls varied slightly from year to year. 32's seem a bit much in my opinion. What prochargers and how much boost? What props are currently on it?

Boat is a 2003 with M-1SC ProChargers. Currently running 28P props but I think those are the correct props with stock 500's.

7 pound boost

What is your speed and rpm now your probably somewhere around 650 hp I'd guess assuming heads are stock and so on do you know if the ecms where reprogrammed these boats run high slip numbers you have to harness it best way is more tip cup and run the biggest diameter you can look at all props

New boat to me. Not sure if the ecm's were reprogrammed or not. Ran the boat briefly last week and ran 68 mph and hit the rev limiter so I'm guessing the 28's aren't tall enough

Try 32s on it

If drives are stock at 1.5 gears and ecm stock at 5350 to 5400 is rev limiter at 68 your round 29% slip I would try 30s and get numbers

I have a set of 30's that I was planning to try. Seems about right based on what I saw. I'm pretty sure the stock 500's are 5150 aren't they?
