Astro, you'll need to pull the prop off and the numbers should be imprinted on the back. The Suzuki has a beefed up lower unit so you get tons of torque and longevity but they may not be as fast as two strokes off the holeshot.
My Suk DF 140 has a 3 blade 14x20 Suzuki Stainles prop. Good for top end (@45) but probably too much pitch for pulling adult skiers at the lake all day (ok for one skier). You supposedly can get away with a little more pitch with stainless than you can with aluminum or composite.
