I was running a 1835 VW it was March so the temp was around 70 Alt at pass 7800' It did fair down low but quit around 6500' The best props I have ever run was Edd Sturba. I did not try to many a couple of Hegy props, Warp, Ivo and a Sensnich I tried an 1835 VW a 2180 VW,A Cont 75 and finely a O-200. The KR weighed 515 with the VW's but I don't remember what it finely weighed with the O-200. The O-200 made it a 160 mph cruise.
