Appears we will probably end up with a labbed 32 maximus, labbed by either merc or BBLADES. Will let you know where we land. If you are still looking in a month you are more than welcom to try them.

Re: New prop results are in!!!
Well the 29 pitch P5X props are very nice, 
Got bow lift which is what I needed, got a great hole shot, and ran 77.8 gps but bounced rev limiter so going to try a set of 30-'s hopefully will see 80+mph soon. Also it handles better around the docks, I like that alot.

These hit the limiter for me too, but I learned if I tuck the drives in a bit I come off the limiter and pick up a couple mph, just the opposite of what you would think. But with the high X we are running we really don't need much trim at all, unless you like to throw that nice rooster tail.
