If i have an aluminum prop that puts me just into the rev limiter at wot can it be cupped/ reworked by prop shop to take some rpm out of it and add bite? I know stainless can but what about aluminum?

James' Propeller in Dallas (used to be), maybe Denton, or Carrollton, TX. now can do anything you want done to most any prop in the recreational boat area. If he can totally rebuild an alum, putting new blades on and all, he car surely cup one. On a new prop, Turning Point, Hustler is alum and cupped and for sale on iboats.

HTH,

Yeah I dropped it off today at the prop shop, they said it was no problem to do what I want to try. Get it back mid week and give it a try next weekend
