Need more baseline data.

What year motor and it's rated HP?

What is the OD ratio/ (most likely 1.5:1 for the B1)

What prop is on there now? (#blades, pitch and diameter)

What max WOT rpm are you running and what GPS mph?

Once that is known we can offer more information. My bet is a 3 blade for max speed either in the Merc Laser II line of props or perhaps the Mirage +. Pitch TBD.
