97 ZT280 question

What prop will give me the best holeshot and Top end speeds on this boat...Stock 502 MPI MAG..stepped hull...cpts call exhaust....What should top speed be...Thanks in advance
 
You can't have both, pick top speed or hole shot. Bravo for hole shoot and mirage plus for top speed. About 22-24 pitch should be close. If you have some rpm and speed numbers from another prop we can get closer.

For all around use the bravo is the better choice. Top speed about 65mph.
 
The best information anyone can give would be dependant on the data you have already. What prop are you running? What rpm? What speed?
As ZT260 said, you can't have both. I would defenitly recommend running a Bravo 4 blade. You can't beat the cruise and anti-blowout you get with a 4 blade.
