Well, Rusty
 
Eat your heart out.  Got my new monster prop from Performance Props yesterday.  Again, a beautiful piece of woodwork.  Its about 8 1/2" longer than my old prop.  My heart skipped a beat as I was pulling the new prop out of its shipping container as I happened to glance over at my old prop sitting on the floor - when the thought hit me!  Did I tell Clark this one was conventional Rotation??????  Whew!   was sure glad to see the blades twisted the opposite of my old prop {:>)
 
Got an email from Laura who told me to ship $$ as they were shipping my modified gear box to me next week.  So timing is pretty good all the way around. 
 
It turns out the Prop is approx 1/4 thicker than my old prop - but I had a 1/4" spacer so I'll be able to use the same prop bolts - rather than popping close to $200 for a new set.
 
Well, got to go wipe the dust off the new prop {:>)
