I am trying my darndest to find a cleaver for my Cobra, I have a lead on a Merc wheel that I am pretty sure can be re hubed. Will a 23 cleaver run at the same top RPM as a Viper 23?

what is the viper comparable to? mirage, turbo? i've found that swapping from a round ear, cupped to the cleaver will provide me with about 2 - 300 rpm.

Rootsy,
I'm currently running a Mich, "Ballistic" 21" square tip prop at 75 rpm shy of my red line 4600rpm. I also happen to have a 23"p Merc s/s Cleaver that I picked up over this winter, so switching to it might just be a good thing to try? =re: paddle more water and still be in the hp/rpm sweet spot.

What's your opinion? Chances good for increase mph? :)

Does anyone have a Cleaver <preferably used> that will FIT an OMC King Cobra? I just got a WILD HAIR...and I wanna try one.

Can't HURT, right?

Cheers,
