There is a reference in this YouTube video


I think there were only 2 or 3 models. 926 may have something to do with 26 inches. It depended on the cams - not sure whether the cast parts were different.

Ayuh,...... I've been runnin' torque shift props for years, though not as originally intended,..... Back when I lived on Lake Ontario, I had a Starcraft Islander, with a 4.3l Alpha 1 'n my main purpose was fishing,.... Trollin' for walleye to be exact,.... Which means trollin' very, very slowly,....
I set up my torque shift prop with the extra heavy springs, to hold it in the 11" pitch much longer than normal, so I could troll extremely slowly, yet bring the motor's rpms up abit higher than dead idle,....
The only draw back was when I wanted to run in, or out to an area, I had to over trim the drive, to get the prop to shift up to the hi-gear,.....

The L&S factory in NH burnt to the ground, years ago, then a retired shop teacher(Bob) in Ca bought up the left over inventory, 'n created his own rebuild kits for most of the plastic bushings, 'n such,....
I talked to Bob many times, 'n did abit of business with him,.....
Unfortunately, I'm guessin' Bob passed away, as his website, 'n contact info is no longer in service,.... a Huge loss for folks like me,.....

I've bought up a few torque shift props as I come across 'em, mostly to have parts to keep atleast one of 'em serviceable,....
I'll gladly pm you my contact info, 'n if you could send me some pictures of the one you have, I'd be willin' to pay ya a couple hundred bucks for it, depending on it's condition,.....
I'm a moderator over at iboats.com, 'n can be found there daily, though I try to stop by here weekly as well,......
Let me know what you think,.....
Thank you,..... Bondo,.....

Well Bondo, I'm having trouble with forums. On this one I can't PM until I get enough posts and on iboats when I tried to post I got this message, (You have been banned for the following reason: Spam. Please contact the administrator if this was done in error..) so now I have to wait for an administrator to respond.

Bondo

Ok Lenny,..... The mod that deleted yer post at iboats should have done that, but only that,.....
As soon as I post this, I'll go to the mod box at iboats, 'n call him out on it, 'n get you reinstated,....

When I see such things, I usually try to edit the post enough so it's doesn't violate rule #8, which is no selling on the open forums,.....
But anyways,.... hang tight, I'm on it,.....

You need > 10 posts here to post pics and pm. You have 9. Almost there….You can do it, we have faith.

Bondo

I posted for JB to un-ban you at iboats, we'll see how long it'll take, unfortunately, it's beyond my knowledge on how to do so,.....

We have a couple other mods that also may be able to pull it off today,....

I'm not sure how many posts you need to use pms either here, or at iboats either,....
Maybe drop several posts here, 'n see what it takes,.....
I know you've got a pm waiting for you here, with my email address, 'n my phone number,.....
Hoping to talk to you soon,..... Bill,....

Bondo

Ayuh,.... 'n JB found my post at iboats, so you'll soon be a member over there again too,.....

Thank you SB,...... I believe iboats is the same,.....

Capt. Lenny

I'm a patient person. I knew I needed 10 post's to be able to PM so thanks for the help. I'll be getting in touch soon.

I have a torque shift prop and wanted to know if you're interested in it ,I know it's not worth much but I hate to scrap it cause when I used it I love it. Don't want much probably just shipping Thanks Ron

Are you still looking to get rid of that prop?
