[QUOTE="jetswu87, post: 357630, member: 14547"] Well going down a prop size gave me 150-200 rpm. The smallest prop that is made for my motor is a 6. Operating range for my motor is 4500-55500 according to iboats. So even assuming getting 300more rpm out of two steps down, I'll be at 4500 WOT with the boat loaded. With another $100 prop, I can just get the bigger carb for $185. As for long term damage to the engine, it's 15 years old and still had the original prop on it. Sure it's been run like this it's entire life. I may pickup the carb this week, if I do I'll report back with the change. Hopefully to help someone with similar setup in the future. [/QUOTE]
