Actually, I did think it was funny. I had been going back thru the posts looking for pictures of your install,
(I didn’t find any, by the way, hint, hint), and I found where you said you
were about ready to start your engine. So I thought you probably had done
it already.
Personally I am working on the award for the longest time to get in the air.
I am getting close! To the award, not the air!
I was really impressed by the change in rpm by changing to Ed's prop. I am
now trying to do a change in my prop. I hope I get similar results.

Sorry Bill, I just reread what I wrote a second ago, and it may have come
off as rude. That was not my intent, intended a bit of humor. Sorry if it
was taken wrong.
Reason I posted this was from the Alternative engine fly in this weekend
in Paducah KY. Sam had a problem with low RPM, and it was immediately
remedied with a different prop (but labeled the same dimensions) After
running, and a side by side comparison, obvious that the first was a
misbuild? mislabel? not sure, but not correct. I have a prop from the same
builder, and was wondering about it. Thus, I checked and reported.

Ben, What static rpm are you getting
with your prop?

Sam and Doug,
I checked my prop this morning. Made it
in at 12:45am, so I decided to
shower and go to bed. Prop measures the right diameter, of
course I have no
idea if the cord is appropriate for the HP. It is a 66 x 85
three blade;
compared to the C130 prop on Sams airplane, it looks pretty
small.
Had a great time Saturday, great to see everyone. Thanks
Sam for the
motivation, I have made some good progress today.
Best,
Ben
