OMC VIper Props

[Petrol Head]

I pair of Viper 14 1/2 * 23 props.

Re worked to 24" pitch as a pair.

Blades thinned.

I would keep them for messing about with ringo's and donughts but as I have shafts to take the mercury racing hub pattern now they are of no use to me.

What are they like compared to mirages?

I have no idea, it would be interesting to find out just what they are like. Sadly I have never got around to trying them.

I snapped prop shafts early in both of the last two seasons. The first one an incomplete weld failing altoghether. Which I probably aggravated with poor driving. The second, was a material flaw in the foundry process.

Now, the new shaft and spline pattern have ruled out trying them altogether.

Worst case, they must have been tolerable as a design?

I dont think Tony would have bothered thinning and repitching otherwise.

Can't you get them re-hubbed to fit, or is it a case of can't be arsed faffing around?

waste of money and time really.

wouldnt mind tryin them but 26p fourblades turning up, either i extend the pitch and thin them, if i ever get the heads on. or leave alone and by 28's.

right now try the 26p's and see
