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. 
 
Great to hear your prop and redrive are soon to be together.  I expect my drive will be here around about the same time yours is, but the prop is about 2 weeks from shipping.  I need to collect some serious performance numbers now, so I'll have something to compare to, but I haven't had the ceiling needed to do much climb or cruise speed testing.  I've also queued up so much stuff to do during the switchover, that I need to get started before the prop arrives.   
 
Well, got to go wipe the dust off the new prop {:>)
 
 Dust or drool :-)
