[QUOTE="onthewater102, post: 419156, member: 13702"] I ran your #'s through Mercury's slip calculator and you're running at rough 16% slip, which isn't bad at all so I think you're on the right course looking to go up in pitch. If you can't find a prop you do have some slip that could be corrected by adding a cup to the prop, but I don't calculate you gaining any great amount of speed, hopefully it will reduce the role by 400 and you'll be roughly in the same position speed wise as you are in right now.
