Let me know what you find Scand - I'm after some of those as well!

Too big I'm afraid - 23's or 24's would be perfect for our gearing!

As Gerry.p said Paul 120 bhp was the norm in the trucks, the first race engine started at 250 bhp then Chris Kay joined Sabre's and the Ford went from strength to strength, had some problems in the earlier years, but they became so reliable, a pair of motors would race for a full year and not brake-down.

Why do you need them that small ?? can't you just change gears ??

You do know that they make a adapter to use 26 spline ( #5-6 ) props !?
I think Scott Mander at speed & custom marine has these and samller props....i know, its in the US but hell ...they are hard to find in a small size like that !

I have a gearbox and a chain drive Arneson both with ratios in and that's how they work out - it's easier to find props than change the sprockets and chain but I will do that if I can't find the correct props first - the 25's may work but I need to try them first.
