Default Prop selection help on 24 Python

I had a 350 mag mpi and I ran a 24 pitch. I recently purchased a 496 ho to drop in instead. It's a 1999 24x7 Python. Already have a brovo drive. What pitch prop, #blades should I try first. Any help appreciated.

I have the same boat. I have a 365hp 454 mag, 1.5 bravo 1 and now run a Mirage 23. With a 496 HO, and if your gear ratio is 1.5, I would do a Mirage 25 or Mirage Plus 25.

My boat came with a regular 25, but I couldnt spin it as high as I wanted to at the time. In retrospect, I probably should have had it labbed, but with your power plant, a 25 would be a good place to start.

The 24 Superboat I had ran much better with a bravo prop. Chine walked all over with a Mirage+.
