Thanks TMone and Julie I am starting with my 25 Mirage + at 17.75X, I will try a bravo1lab and labbed and unlabbed Mirage 27's Should I be concerned about torque loading of the drive with 4 blades and bigger pitches? that is why I was going with 3 blades first. My motor probably makes the same torque but less Hp than yours T Because of the Oval heads.

Ironman,
I was just out in my local lake this weekend running my 27 pitch mirage plus. I do like this prop but the 4 and 5 blades just overall work so much better as far as handling characteristics go. As far as torque load on the drive. I would think that the larger wheels would put some more strain on them due to less slip but maybee Julie can help us out with that question..Hey were you the guy I met last year on Lake George with what I believe it was a maroon 24 Pantera?
