Smile Re: paging houston prop

If your still looking for information on your set up, we can help. I must apologize for not paying as much attention to this forum as the prop forum.

Typically the decreas in rpm from the 30 B1's to the 32 is 400rpm. You lost a little more which isn't completely unheard of. I'm not sure about your rpm with the 30's since the rev limiter on HP 500's is 5400. Do you have a different program in your ecu?

Our Labbing thickness curve will deliver an additional 300 rpm in its standard version. We offer additinal curves that will give even more rpm. We would want to discuss your ultimate desires before suggesting that option. Even at 5300, with your currrent slip%, you should see a speed increase.

Call us if we can help. Thanks.
