Post big blade on 37gtr
Will a worked/cupped big blade put me on or over the rev limiter on a 37gtr ? Boat is a 1856. 100

I answered you in the other thread..

"Stock it ran up to 4600 on my rig but sucked out the hole.. I added a some cup after it had some light wear. And it was perfect for a stock motor. It ran a solid 29-30 light and pushed a load well."

But to clearly answer it. No you shouldn't hit it with a stock bb(may be close)and definitely not with a cupped one.

Bb seems to be the more popular 2 blade on the 37s.

A big blade with 1'' of pitch still turns 4350-4400 on an 18/54 prodigy...

The "blowout" on takeoff is much improved also.

First mud motor so not really sure what kind of prop work is best. Thanks for the guys helping out. So verdict is 1" of pitch runs better than stock. Should I tell my prop guy to put any cup to it also ? Pitch plus cup ? Whats ideal for holeshot, speed and mud ?

I did light cup. Gained speed on top, and drastically improved holeshot.
