The rpm will rise 300-400. The boat should plane faster and accelerate faster.
The cruise speed will drop.
Labbing any of these props can improve over all performance.

If only I could find a used set. Haha found a left hand one, need a right would like to pick up a set of stock ones and then chose what I want to work with. My 26s are not in perfect shape so they will get played with / fixed once I have a spare set

[QUOTE=jmeng;3655376]Theres a good looking set for sale in the Swap Show right now.[/QUOTE
ya i seen them, i think a four blade 26p is too much as i have 3 blade 25p and im at 4800 rpm on a 1988 330hp twins. if i went four blade i think id stay at 25p from what ive read. sorry mittens not trying to hijack you...

I think those old 330hp 7.4s were rated at 4600 rpm. If so you could afford to lose a few rpm. Plus the Bravo One 4 Blades always run about an 1" less than marked.
