Ok heres the deal guys, I am currrently spinning a Sensenich 70x34 kevlar tipped stick prop on my DD SBC. I will be getting a new prop soon and I wnat some advice on the length. Lets just say for example I switched to the same prop but in a 72x34 or a 74x34, assuming I spin all the props to the same rpm, how much more thrust will I get from the longer props vs the original 70" model? When I am on plane in deepwater I can't back the rpms down below 2200 without falling off plane, I want to be able to run an plane at around 1700-1900 and I thought I might be able to with a longer prop. Or should I switch to a paddle prop instead of the stick prop all together? I don't care much about top end and a composite is out of the question for now. Thanks.
