Bought a 4 winns 201 with 350 Gm/OMC came with 20 pitch SS prop that needs to be straightened and refirbed. Local prop shop said can change pitch up one to 21....anyone have this combo engine with 21? What should I expect for top end? With 19 Alum on boat seller said it will do 55....
Thanks

Re: Liberator owners what prop?

I take it from your post that you have not tried out this, or any prop yet. Keep what you have and test it. Read the prop section for what you need to look for while testing and if your results are not satisfactory, post what info you have collected, and what you would like to improve and we can give you some suggestions as what needs changing.
Bottom line, dont change things unless you know why you are changing them and what will happen with the change.

You may find someone with your exact boat but not likely.Your better off if you
get us your present rpm and speed with your present prop.
We can estimate your prop requirements and whether you can spin the 21.
Also would help to know the year and hp.
