[QUOTE="Johny25, post: 276282, member: 7791"] A 9X10 is most likely going to run your motor at too high an RPM. With the drop in pitch and diameter your likely to go up 250rpm. Do you have a tachometer? If not then I would invest in one if you want the correct prop for your setup. You want your RPM's to be at around 5500 give or take 100. If you stick that 9X10 on and end up over 6000 then you are going to put unnecessary wear on your motor, along with other possible bad things like engine seizing [-X The lower the pitch the better the holeshot, higher pitch for top speed. So if you drop in pitch you will gain holeshot and lose some top speed on your boat. But I would really advise getting a tiny tach for around $50 so you can get the perfect prop for your motor and needs. [/QUOTE]
