I was just about to call Catto and order up a prop. May as well wait for a few more details from yours. How was your experience with Catto? How long was the lead time. What was the final pitch you settled on? With my new engine I need a little more pitch if I am truly going to be the fastest kid on the block. Either that or the ability to turn the prop a little faster... hmmm Dave Leonard I'll try to remember to check the pitch tonight and report back. Catto is good to work with but he's also a popular guy, so his lead time is out there (and you may want to pad his estimate a month or two just so you aren't disappointed).
