OPTI RULES!

As for the prop,

now wait for the Googles

need to take look as i can not remember
but rule of thumb dealer supplying engine will change prop if its not performing for you. so long as you do not damage it.
be interested to know what price you got it for.... mine was well keen on the 150.
also you really need it fitted by some one with a passport number,not your holiday one!! also the oil pump need's setting on ddt machine, or your warrantie is void, as the book requires signing, you can pull all the cables and extend all wires etc if they need it, your self and get then to drop engine on and test etc save you some money,

(all the above un searched via google

)

hi Nug

you got a great deal on your 150 engine, i have managed to secure this little baby even cheaper.......cooool and that is fitted(hung and pdi'd!!!! Guy suppling is superb but in all fairness the places i have spoken with have all been great as well.

I run the 21" on a 150/6m rig ands it's just about perfect. Experiment with the vent plugs too until you find your best set up. I definitely wouldn't put a 19" on your rig, but it might be worth trying a four blader too, maybe a Revolution 4. I know Wayne Rogers had one for his Opti 225 and I've heard a lot of good things about them too! Worth a look anyway if only to confuse the issue!!
