What prop?

[Jthomasusa1]

Hello All:

This is my first posting concerning N83MR, a fine flying Rebel with a Subaru
2.2, Ross gear, and 3-blade Warp Drive prop.

Never could solve the cooling problem , so decided to install Lycoming O 320
(150 HP) with Sensenich M 74 DM-0-58 prop.

With this installation, I find that I cannot produce full power. The static
obtainable is 2200 RPM. I have gone through required trouble-shooting guides
with no results.

I suppose I made a bad prop selection and need another prop to solve this
one.

I'm operating off of 1100' strip at 800 SL, so no problem in and out. Sue
and I like to fly to the beaches of NC and to the major airshows once or twice a
year, so standard to cruise is the pitch I would like.

Could someone tell me what they think is the ultimate choice for a prop for
the Rebel with this engine?

All the Best,

John in NC
828-743-6280

PS: For anyone who may have a project, the FWF I mentioned, is for sale at
Goodwill prices. Give me a call.

John,
We are building an Elite in Sumter, SC. If your prop is a Sensenich I believe they can repitch it 8" total over the life of the prop. Last time I checked it was about US$200.
