To be honest no. But I promise I will do a detailed comparison soon.
As soon as I can get on the boat with one of my boys and shake the wife and kids for a few hours I plan to really document the differences between the 2 sets.

I know there is more speed in it once I play with engine heights. I'm having the new props made with a 15.25 diameter which should allow me to come up another 1\8 inch.
I have ran pretty much the same set up (32B 300s 4 blade cleavers) I think it should have a little more in it. I have seen 98-99 consistantly and i have seen 101.I think playing with motor height is a start before spending money on props. Good luck

P.S. The difference from 4 to 5 blades is fantastic, the 5 Blades feel like a sewing machine they are so smooth
you missed his previous post about buying a set himself.

what water pressure are you running now?, and make sure you keep an eye on it with the new props . You'll prob get more lift and will need to raise engine heights to get some blade out of the water. Do you know what rake these props are?

These props are 14.50 x 30P 5B. I have worked pretty tight with Matt and Julie and sent an extensive set of pics of my set up. Changed a few things the way they told me to so first thing tomorrow I'll give it a shot. I'll be sure to let you know how it works out !!
