Prop difference?

[cfelton]

Well I pulled the prop again and the only number I found is stamped way inside the web and it is 22.My buddys prop is a new Quicksilver 19 pitch prop. Never heard of a 22 pitch prop but who knows its an Elite 1. Im running 93 octane non ethanol fuel, with the timing at 4 degrees and a Pertronix ignition. The tach is the factory installed tach so it could be off some. My neighbor gave me a quicksilver 23 degree prop but I think that would make it worse. I guess Ill try to get my hands on a 19 pitch prop and try that. Both boats stay on trailers but Im wondering what the weight difference is between a 77 and a 85 V20. The stern of my boat sits about 3 inches lower than the 85 at rest, and at WOT both of us were trimmed up to almost porposing Thanks guys!
