Has anyone bought or sold a 26 Scarab recently? What did you pay for it or sell it for?

Does anyone know what the factory size prop was? I have a 98 with 502 and previous owner put a 4 blade 26 on it but i can only spin it to 4,600...

i had a 26 scarab with the hp 500 and it had a 23 mirage plus 3 blade at 5300 rpm so i assume the 503 efi would have the 23 3 blade at5000 rpm

Just wanted to see if this works. This is my Scarab 26 I painted a few years ago.

Crap, didn't work. Maybe can't use Facebook for the url.
