FWIW. I found the Pronce 62 x 66 prop to be the perfect combination on my O-200 powered KR. Shortening the prop to 60 inch Diameter, 68 inch pitch would be about right. I flew with a lot of different combinations if ignition, compressions, headers etc, and operated from very high altitude runways. That seemed to be about the perfect combination.

Thank you Larry, I was thinking a 68 would perform much better. Guess I needed a second opinion. This is just a stock 0-200 keeping it simple.

Ed Sterba recommended a 60X68 for the stock 0-200 mounted in an aircraft
with the speed range of the KR.  That seems an ideal climb / cruse prop
for the 0-200 in a KR.  I don't know how Ed Sterba's numbers compare to
other prop makers.  If you go with higher compression, electronic
ignition, smaller flat plate area aircraft, you can start bumping those
numbers up by some amount. You're on your own at that point in finding
the right prop.
