Prop changes

As some know, I recently had my motor rebuilt after a piston completely exploded. The rebuild was done by a Gear Head race car mechanic. Boat runs great now.

After the rebuild, the current SS pop 13x13 was turning some pretty high RPM's. So, I opted to go into the Pop buying business. Let me tell you, it was no fun ride. 7 props later, I think we have finally narrowed it down to the one that will perform the best on my boat. The ACME 515.

I'll post results later.

Well.. Bill Weeks from ACME just called and after we talked a bit we decided to go with the 449. It is a 13x12.625 or a 13x12 5/8

I'll post results next week after we receive the prop.
