after the wilson work --- Did you use the exact untouched props for the comparison ? thanks
That sounds like an offer to me. Just saying.

Both props were inspected by Brett at BBlades and determined to be worthless with many cracks and failed repairs. I put on a set of new stock dia. Maximus 32s with the rebuilt and trued lowers from Wilson. No way Im testing with the cracked props. We were lucky enoigh to avoid a failure. I get what your saying though.

Its been said that the IMCO Lowers are Faster than the Mercury Sportmaster Lowers...
Which is better to start with?? What I mean is, I have -2 Sportmaster Lowers now with the longer skeg...
Should I sell them and get a set of IMCO Lowers or send my Sportmasters to Wilson??
I wondering which would result in a higher top end speed??

Your best bet would be to talk to Mark Wilson. He will give you the options that would work. Great guy to bounce ideas off of and knows his stuff.
