Re: prop shaft length

In this thread you will find drawings with dimensions for both short and long hub on VP Aquamatic drives:

My (wild) guess is that you have a short hub...

The "14r19mwc" on your prop indicates that is is a Michigan Wheel Corporation (manufacturer), 14" diameter and 19" pitch, right hand rotation. "a16142" is likely the article number.
