What prop to use?
 
I have a 1994/2005 Eliminator Eagle. Just spent 30k on re-rigging and I think the only thing left to do is pick the right prop set up.

Weight: Approx 4800 lbs
Hull Type: Standard pre-step bottom
Motor: Larry Peto 496magHO with 3300sc Whipple charger
Dyno Sheet: 5585rpm 757hp 782trq 7.7lbs boost
Drive Type: Bravo XR 1.50 with Imco 2" shorter lower unit
Prop Type: Standard Bravo 28 pitch

Engine and drive are both new and I only have 5 hours on them, so top GPS speed and WOT is unknown. Don't need to spend another 30k...

Any input would be appreciated.

I quick run of the numbers suggests a 30P Lab Finished Bravo 1.

Your Box Stock 28 will be a good test platform.

Curious what you feel the boat is capable of.

With the 28P you should see somewere around the 85 MPH plus mark, with acceptable slip %. Once you run at WOT post your RPM and Speed via gps and we can go from there.
