Are you running this on a #5? Or a #3 big shaft? They are a little smaller than a #6 and would need a bushing.

I am in the middle of converting my boat to arneson asd7 drives , so I am thinking about taking the props over to the machine shop and see about boring the end to accept the bushing and C clip .

Thank you I just want to see how much material will have to be removed and if it will weaken the props too much .

You can bore the propeller. We used to do that often when I was at Merc Racing. They do not offer that service anymore. We do not offer that service at BBLADES either. We do keep the delrin bushings and clips in stock if you need them. The bushing id's are 1.75" and 1.8"
