[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 201432, member: 3278"] Baitcaster - Now you need to either shim the engine up a little or drill the next holes that are located 1" below the ones in use, raise it to the new holes and see what you get! Nice job! And.......although scarce, see if you can find an old 2-blade Michigan AJC417 for that old Evinrude 18. That prop is usually worth another 1-2mph. Let me know if you find two....I am currently borrowing one. With my '57 Johnson 18 I picked up an additional 1.2mph over a cupped production 3-blade aluminum and need an additional 2mph to hit the 30 mark in my 15.5' Gheenoe Classic.
