I would think you have a bit too much prop.  I would
run it and see what kind of static RPM you have.  I
need to double check my Marcotte but I think it turns
the same direction as the engine.  If that is the case
I may sell the prop off my pusher Ross PSRU.

the Ross 2.17:1 PSRU with a normally aspirated
(originally turbo) engine.
Do you think that I may be over-propped?  Thanks
again for your opinion and
reply.  Paul Conner, 13b powered SQ2000 canard.
