Cody,,,i forgot .....are they bigshaft #4's or smallshaft ?

Propwise i would start with a 4 blade 17-18 X 30-32 to see what she does.

If you turn the engines at 6000, you'll need 36 inches of pitch. Test with 17"-17.5" diameter props in the largest pitch you can find. You need some type of base line to get started.
