Thanks Red and Barb for the prop information. Power Tech, more than any other after market manufacturer, seems to take their business seriously, offering tech support simply by calling them on the telephone, offering an array of props for all motors, and offering a trade-in program if the first choice is not right.

That's the prop I was running with the stroker in Red Wing.  Instant acceleration.  Not what I'll run with the 357.
