I have a 4.3L with an Alpha 1 Gen II drive. After some talk on another post I'm going to change my prop to help out with hole shot. I don't know what size I have now and am open to suggestions of what I should take a look at. I've been told that a 4-blade would be a good move from my 3 blade I have now. I'm looking for more zero - go power to pull a skier and plane/plain (which is it?) faster. This is what I have now: aluminum 3-blade with the markings 49 78122 A40 21P. What's all that mean?
The boat's WOT RPMs should be around 4400-4600 but I can only get up to about 4200-4300, and that's with about 550lbs of people onboard. I also have a 3-blade stainless steel prop but it's pretty chewed up and bent. The PO apparently used it for exgavation.
What would you recommend? Thanks in advance.
