I thought if you over rev you were under/ too small of a prop ? I'm no prop guy so correct me if I'm wrong.Big Block Power wrote: Sat Mar 10, 2018 3:32 pm I'm surprised he bounced of the rev limiter so easy. 55 it was done. Very quick though. I think it's a bit over propped.
Nope....If it over revs it is under-propped. In other words not enough pitch or prop diameter and allows the motor to rev over the recommended wide open throttle (WOT) RPMs. If it was over-propped it would mean too much pitch and the engine cannot reach recommended WOT. This would be akin to lugging an engine.Big Block Power wrote: Sat Mar 10, 2018 5:42 pm Yes I would he could have over trimmed it but it went to 4500 awe full fast. I think it's over propped and I'm sticking too that.

Same principle in aerodynamics.
Sorry BBP. Been meaning to tell you this. Just trying to find the right time. I guess this is it.![]()
I always cut you folks from Wisconsin some slack. It's always so dang cold up there I figure the brain cells are all frozen affecting the common thought process.Big Block Power wrote: Mon Mar 12, 2018 5:57 amOk under propped my bad.
