The prop you have should be marked as to diameter and pitch. Use that as your guide. You should be able to turn about 44-4800 rpm at WOT. <br /><br />I always see props for OMC electrics on ebay.

between two blades. There's prob a number on the hub end too, something like 389-211...google it with "OMC" and you'll find info about the pitch.
