Seriously Snoozer, when you bust that prop on a trap going that fast, you should try a 19 or 20 pitch, I think you will like the rpm reduction.

Well Randle, I have no intention of going that fast. But it was a test to see if the motor would go a taller wheel. It looks like it will. The next up stainless is a 20 I think. I'll order one tomorrow.
I want to run this motor in the low fours, so that should give me a little more SPEED. I want to keep up with the jones-es.

I had trouble finding a 20 pitch in the same diameter, they were all a quarter inch smaller around, so I got the 21p......it is probably slightly too much, but I never run WOT anyways.

I got it right from the Suzuki dealer, $370.
Now I got a spare. I like the boat better with this one eventhough it takes longer to get up on plane. I don't do hole shots, so it's no big deal. Wot is somewhere in the middle 5000's. I didn't get a chance to get a long enough run at it the other day, to tell exactly.
