The previous owner specifically warned me that if I used too high of gearing it would put an unacceptable strain on the motors and I could damage them - bend a rod, etc., that I needed to properly gear it for the elevation at Tahoe. This is where Brett of BBlades comes in.

BBlades also has a test program for props.

Also, lugging the engine at too low of a WOT rpm caused by too big of props is hard on the engine and can cause detonation.
