You are in the right place, I'm sure someone with that combo will chime in soon. I run a labbed 26 4 balde ( I think, there are no markings on it) on my 1:36 but also have a lot more power. Have you tried the prop calculator?

Wht 1.36 with only a 496ho/ That does not make sence. I would switch to 1.50 first and then prop the boat. The gear ratio is for 110 plus boats not 70's. Are you sure that it has 1.36. If so you acceleration is being hurt and the top speed also.

I agree that a 1:50 would be better. Mine came with a 1:36 so unless I can find someone to swap with, it's going to stay that way.
You can do a search for a prop calculator there are lots out there. Here is one I found real quick. http://www.rbbi.com/folders/prop/propcalc.htm
