    Which is the correct upgraded prop???

    Currently we have the stock 12x 16 I believe on the boat and its low on power and adding weight makes it a dog..

    On my old supra I went from the stock prop to a 14x14 .25 and it was the single best upgrade I ever did to that boat..
    TO bad the wake was like jumping the grand canyon.. BUT anyway.. I called today and Acme only makes a 13.5x 14.25 ?? however I can get a OJ that is 14x14.5 which is correct here???

    I assume you want as much low-end torque you can get. If that is the case go with the ACME 1464 (13.5 x 14.25) You could also go with the 1236, it's the same as the 1464 but with a bit more cup. I went from the 536 to a 644 to the 1464. I will never go back! The 1464 with give you all the holeshot you ever need.

    You have the stock 536 (13.5 x 16) which is a dog out of the hole with stock ballast much less added weight. I could be wrong but I don't think the OJ size you have listed with fit. I don't think you can go any bigger than 13.5 in diameter.

      You need 13.5. 14 gets it to close to hull which will cause cavitation which can cause burn on your prop.

      What will more cup do?

        More cup allows the prop to slip a little more which actually helps get the rpms up and gives you more hole shot.
