Got a pair of brand new Hydromotive P5X 30's that have been labbed and are set up for xr's. Anyone have the same in 29's for SWAP or sale??

I am having the 31 PX5s labbed now, just curious what happened with the 30 labbed props that you want to go to 29s? Who did the labbing?

Todd at Hydro did the labbing, great job, but I had a momentary lapse on the mid-MO humidity and the extra 150 rpm that we got from the labbing was not enough. They will do better in the fall, but 95% of my time is spent in the 3-4 summer months.

Have 500EFI's and they were turning 5000-5050 rpm before, are turning anywhere from 5050 to 5150 now, were turning as high as 5200 in the spring. Think I gained about 1-2 mph as well, but still have a little more to go.

The typical RPM increase on a P5-X is about 150 RPM.
