24 P&D w/ bravo 1
 
What prop should I be looking for with my 351 ford pushing about 330 horsepower with the bravo on the back of my 24 P&D? Just something to guide myself with.

Thanks

assuming 1.5:1 ratio, about a 23-25

zavier24 04-27-2013 02:22 PM

Yes a 1.50.1 ratio. 23-25 3 blade?

More like a 19-21" prop with that gear ratio.

What about if I were to think of trying a 4 blade?

if your looking for speed the 3 blade will be faster.

The Revolution 4 would be a great test propeller for a 4 blade option.

Drop about 1" of pitch for the added blade. So if you had a 21" three blade and swapped to a 4 blade it should be roughly a 20" pitch prop. The 3 blades will in most cases, but not all, be faster if you are looking for top end. Out of the hole and midrange performance is much smoother with a 4 blade from my experience.
