Default Proping a Checkmate Convincor 251

Hey guys, I'm in the process of dropping a 540 into my 1993 Convincer 251, Its nothing wild (500-550 hp), Im looking to run around 5200 RPM, any advice on a prop would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Get a base line with something so we can go from there.

Otherwise get me a true wet weight and I'll run the numbers to get you within a inch or so.

25 Mirage Plus if you have 1.5 ratio should get you really close. Or a Bravo1 26
