I don't know exactly what they will do to the prop, but what I thought i heard is this. .Bblades will be cutting down the blades to get the RPM to 5100 and adding a little more cup. Brett said it should get up to 2-3 additional mph.Jeff Wurl

I have been running a stock 28 pitch 4 blade Bravo 1 and getting 65 GPS at 4850RPM . I got 64 GPS with my 26 pitch 4 blade Bravo 1 at 5100RPM. I finally sent the 28 to B blades last week, but i will not get it back in time to try it before I winterize the end of the month. Brett tells me expect 3 miles an hour more out of his labbing service on the 28 running 5100RPM. I do not see any noticable difference in planing time with any of my props. 24-26-28. I believe the maximus 5 blade was the slowest to plane. All these speeds are with a close to full tank of gas. 70-100 gallons of fuel. Jeff Wurl
