Book says 4500-5500 rpm @wot. So if you're running a 17P prop you're on the high side of the range.
Given that I would think it would be safe to go up to a 19P prop for testing. That will give you less rpms, but maybe more speed. 18P for a SS prop.

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.
(Leave the rest to God)

Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
