HST set up...

Post: # 4893Post mattyg1405 »

hey guys so i finally got my hst floor done , new carpet and seats and ran it last weekend about an hour into it my land and sea hydraulic jackplate gave up on me... but im running a 2.5 efi 260 and i bought a merc 28" chopper just to get me in the water but its a bit marked up so i dont know if i should invest in a new prop or get this one reworked???
what is the difference between a 3 blade and a four blade prop???

i dont know exactly where im at with my prop after the jackplate went out with wayyyyyy too much in the water on gps i still got 86mph out of it before i get way too much lift at about 6500 rpm i have to let off but like i said on gps recall i still hit 86 so i think its gonna turn this 28 just fine when i get the jack plate sqaured away...
