some of you guys must remember the 36 class..well i got a old west bend (sears) 35hp eng...and i need a good prop for it..i have put it on my additor.
last night i sent Ron Hill a few pictures of how far i have come to completing the project..Will be picking up my seat/steering/and foot throttle in a week or two..The big problem is theres not to much prop shaft length to play with..I would like a 10x17 over the hub cleaver..need some ideas then I will get with Ron on how much it will cost me and if its possible..
Maybe Ron can post the pictures i sent..(not computor smart) and i dont know how to post a picture yet..What do you expet for a 68 year "old" any way..Want to run this in the Mini-Endro that Ron has in the works for 2007..so lets have the ideas;) ;) ;)

In the $100 to $150 range you could also consider a 9.75 X 17 Super Speedmaster prop. You'd have to re-spline it to fit, but it should be a good prop and you would not be dealing with the excessive hub length problem.

you may want to contact Mickey Swartzinback, he may still have some of Dannys old stuff. I can check with my Uncle Lane Curry to see if he has any left, I know my Dads stuff is all gone. The 3 of them ran 36 in the 60s.

But don't call until October when they start answering the phone....They are on 40 miles from water, so they are busy...

Besides, if Mickey has any time, he's working on his Fat C...
