I need to know what gear ratios are available for a Volvo 270. I am almost positive mine are 1.61 to 1 now. The issue is I'm running out of prop choices. I am up to a 24P now and am no where near the RPM range I should be in (600 over the 4400 max WOT). And after this springs upgrades ...... well there's not much chance of me finding a 28 or 30 pitch left hand, Volvo 270 prop so I have to do something.
