Not to add to the many prop sizing questions, I know I want a 14 x 21. What I need to know is what options I have for props. I am looking for something cheap for now until I know I have the right sizing. http://www.ebay.com/itm/131760935157 Would this work with my 270 outdrive? Or am I stuck with a VP one?

That is not a Volvo 270 prop. Props for your drive don't have exhaust going through the prop.

My suggestion is to look for a good used Volvo prop.

Left hand, 14 X 21 Maybe 14.5 I think 15 would be too close. I found that it is a shorthub. I also did not know that these are call aquamatic out drives. So I found one that is back ordered. And I am trying another.

I couldn't find may application on iboats website. SO, I think, I ended up searching the Solas website for my application for my Volvo AQ280 and found their part number. Then I entered the part number on the Iboats website and the prop came up. I ended up purchasing a counter rotation, long hub. 14.3x21 for around $120 and free shipping. Del was pretty fast too. FYI, solas or iboats part number was 8812-143-21. I had the correct prop nut assembly and line cutter so I could use a long or short hub prop on my long shaft AQ280 outdrive..
