would this fit? 50's -> 80's Evinrude prop

[beverly]

I own a 1985 Evinrude 8hp
with this prop

and as a temp replacement while i get this one repaired
Would this one fit?

Its from the 1950's (56,57) Evinrude or Jonson
Same shaft dimension all except 2 blade (8" x 8.5P) vs 3 blades (8.5" x 9P). The back is what I can't see or find out what it looks like..

If the shaft size, drive pin size are the same and the prop nut fits, and the blades don't hit, use it.

Update Time...

Now for the rear..
Mine.. 3 Blades

The other.. 2 Blades

One thing I see is the chip on the unbalanced 3 blade prop is causing damage to it's self and the Gearcase Head Assembly.

As for the 2 Blade Prop. No thrust washer and a oversize cap going on the end as its more narrower.
