Were the 14 and 15 pitch props the same diameter as the 11X13 prop you have? If they were also 11 inch diameter it just doesnt make sense that one inch in pitch would cause a 1000 rpm difference at wot. I read in some mag that a 1 inch pitch up should decrease your wot by 200 to 300 rpm. Certainly not a 1000! Thats why I was looking at getting a
10 3/8 X 14 or 10 3/8 X 15 prop to replace my current prop that is 10 3/8 X 13.
With my current prop I also can do 6100 rpm at wot.
