I want to say THANKS to HP for getting me a fast and accurate prop replacement quote. They definetly went above the call of duty! Thanks guys! I'm certain that they can handle your propeller needs.

Darin can you give a prop recommendation for a 22' scarab with a BBC 468 running low 70's right now. Would like to trim a bit more and gain additional speed if possible, running a 26" x 14.625 dia 3 blade right now and pulling it to 5100, rev limiter not an issue, motor can handle 5400-5500 with the cam.

questin most 26 pitch props are a four blade or else yours a 25p has been worked to a 26 any idea what type of prop you currently have,let me know Darin.

Thanks

Re: Mirage conversion to ACCLERATOR
 
The 26 is a borrowed prop from a friend and I'll have to ask him the details. How far can you twist a 23 P Mirage prop, it was just not enough. As well the boat does not react well to more than a little trim, it begins losing grip and then it starts to chine walk slighlty, would a 4 blade help with these symptoms?

Re: Mirage conversion to ACCLERATOR
 
jspeedemon you may want to consider a four blade if you do not like the handling of a 3 blade prop a Bravo-one would be the next best thing labbed of course,we have them ready to ship :) or we can convert your Mirage to the acclerator and we can change the pitch 2"or in (mean) pitch 1.5 with some extra cupping will work fine.give me a call if you need to ?

Re: Mirage conversion to ACCLERATOR
 
Darin, I have a BB 22' Scarab and haven't had much luck with either a 23 mirage or 25 mirage+. Last year I put a new 22 bravo on it and I like the results, but I need more pitch. 60mph@5000 How do you think a Acclerator would for me? Does it make any differance if you start with plain mirage or a + ? Thanks, Doug

Re: Mirage conversion to ACCLERATOR
 
Doug a Mirage plus would be better to work with there is a better blade area to work with,you find a big difference between the ACCLERATOR AND A STOCK PROP.

Re: Mirage conversion to ACCLERATOR
 
Darin, Would you pm me with a price to convert my 25 Mirage+ to a Acclerator? What kind of turn-around time can I expect at this time? Thanks, Doug
