Wow, Those rpm's are down, should be turning close to 4400-4600, losing a lot of speed there, Either those 350 mags are tired or you would need to prop down to 21's, your not getting into the tourque curve on those 350 mags.

I think the stock 350 is not enough for a 23p,I say 21 max,I have tried all of them too since between me and a friend I have tons of props sitting around to play with.

I can run a pair of 23 cleavers 5000 with absolutly no bite. My motors are completly fine just too much prop for my hull and power.

Also, don't forget there is a 21P Mirage and 21P Mirage Plus.

That also helps, And yes, Ebay would be a good place to look or ask around here, There may be some people that have some that will let you try.
