Hi - I just posted a WTB for a VP prop that will fit on a 270 drive w/ LR. I replaced my stock 454 (330hp) with a higher performance 454 (550HP). This 220 jump in HP has made my 23p prop undersized...

Hi - I just put a new engine in my boat boosting HP by 220 and now my 23P prop has been outgrown. I am looking for a prop that will fit a VP 270 LR 26+P (pitch anything 26P or above, preferably...

This looks like a great project! Maybe in a couple years I will have learned enough to tackle something like this :-)

I love to see stuff posted like this! There are probably a handful of guys that have been searching "hi and low" for this, and a few more that are considering supplementing their "parts department"...

I've got a relatively Solas Titan SS that is a 21p, maybe I should have a...
The boat is a 19' Monza w/ ~425hp. I had read in an older thread that a prior owner had run one of these and was getting top end speeds substantially higher than what I am seeing....so I figured,...
I'm toying with the idea of trying out a used 28 pitch prop to see if it a fit for my boat. I'm looking to get one "on the cheap" and if it shows promise, i'll pull the trigger on a nicer unit.
