I have my so called spare props that I baught cheap bone stock 15.5/8 35 maximus and to my surprise ran it up to 115 at 6100 + and ran my new hering 15.5 33 6 blades made a quick stab with those when Eddie young was up here tuning the engines and hit 6200 at 95 easy so sent those back and as Reggie recomended I am waiting on 33 7 blades from hering. TRL you are right hardin does make replacement for the 525 headers , that might be your only bolt on option .

thanks for the pics and keep em coming , in post 111 with engines in the bilge it looks like you have allot more room than mine , I moved the starboard engine ahead 6.5 inches otherwise I would have to cut out the whole inner gunnel lip , now my air intake is facing the inner gunnel and about 5.5 inches away and I have about 1.5 inches from the top of the blower to the bottom of the hatch , also my starboard blower belt is about a thumbs width to the port engine manifold , tight fit ! thats why was wondering how Reggie was going to get such a high X and keep from interfearing with the inner gunnel flange ? looks great !
