Hi everybody, as some of you know I'm putting a 292 in place of a 250 in a 17.5' Crestliner. Having a 165, the gear ratio is 1.65 and the original prop is 14.5D/17P. Any idea/suggestions for a prop for the new engine?

I would say run it with the present prop and reprop based on the results.
just be sure the new motor is setup right throttle ,tuneup etc.

Ayuh,......

You still need a Baseline to see what prop you need,.....

Run it,+ See what Happens........ Then go from there........

My 1st Guess is,..... You'll probably be able to spin a 19"er........
