Default Re: Props for twin 5.7

I have a 29 scarab with 350 carb mags. I run 23p laser 2's @ 46-4700. Tried the mirage+ 23p but just can't turn em up enough. If you get the power up a bit they would work nice , my bud has the same boat w/350 mag mpi's runs at 4900 with the mirage+ 23's. My motors were in bad shape , re-powered this winter , new merc long blocks transoms and drives. Hopefully all will remain the same. The boat came with the laser 2's , my bud had to switch when he went to the mpi's. The lasers were hitting the rev limiters with the extra 30 hp per side. Good luck!

Now that's encouraging! I think I can get an extra 30 HP with a good exhaust and an intake change. If I can get to 4900 with the 23s I will be happy. (for now) Thanks Hustler
