I have a 0320 with 180 rods 160 pistons and cam on a 10.6 Gilleo i am wondering if 68in. warpdrive will push me dry as good as my 68in. paddleprop the warpdrive is a 4 blade
 
It all depends on what you want and how you drive. The paddle prop wiil have more bottom and mid range, it will also have a bit more grunt. But it will be sluggish at the throttle reponse.The warp drive will be snappy, authoritive and alot of fun to drive. In a situation that you need to throttle out of or turn in a corner (like now) the warpdrive will be your man. You will drive the boat with the prop also you wont be sitting on the hill waiting for your prop to spin up (paddle) the warp drive will snap up. On a warp drive you want to floor it for the 1st few moments then back the throttle down a tad, remember most of your push is at top end. The best performance i found was 2850 rpm on the trailer anything pass that burns more fuel and the prop loses push and falls off.
I guess the best benefit of the warpdrive is you cant hear your wife yelling at you for the next 3 days hehe
