I have a 2007 factory built 601 XLi with the sensenich 68x57 prop which seems to have too much pitch. I can get 2330 Static RPM and have not seen anything over 2600-2650 RPM max throttle level flight. I ordered a 3 bladed prop from Warp Drive (ground adjustable) which I think you mentioned you had also done. Have you noticed a difference in performance?
Thank You

The shippinp will be $20.00. Yes you will be happy with the fit and finish. I just got finished making new molds for these parts. You will need to scuff,prime,and paint them of course.
Please give me a call when you can 502-536-3481
