I was talking to Dave Bostic at Hoss Props today. He makes custom Blackhawk Props up to 17 inches in diameter and 34 pitch. He said that their shop made some of the original Blackhawk props when the drive was in the R&D phase.

He told me some pretty interesting things about the drive, one thing was that the back prop should be 2 inches higher in pitch than the front prop. I never knew this. He said a set of 31's should be 30 on the front and 32 on the back.

I'm not in the market for anything bigger than a stock 31 pitch, but I know some of you have been thinking of adding some more power to your Blackhawks and might need some higher pitch props. His website is down, but he can be contacted at 918 479 5167 or hossprops@sstelco.com. His shop is in Oklahoma.
