Ive got a 253 with a 502 mag, I run a 24 Bravo 1 and pull about 4800 rpms at 66mph gps. The 4 blade handles much better then the mirage 25 pitch 3 blade IMO, planes much better, more stable and less porpoise. I think with a little prop work I could see 68. A 22 Bravo 1 may be a good place to start. I also ran a hydromotive 23 pitch 4 blade it worked good but not as well as the B1, that prop pulled 5000-5100 at the same speed.
