Prop pitch

russellh

 Be interested to know what prop pitch some of you are using especially if you have the same set up as a me? 
 I see some of you are reaching the late 30s even early 40 mph top end. 

 I have a 270 with a Volvo 5.7GXI,
Leg is an SXD P.  I don't know what pitch I have at the moment but will check when it comes out of the water on  Wednesday.  I'm looking for more top end. 
 The bottom will be clean when it goes back in so expect to get a better top end then as well

thanks in advance

Be careful trying to get more top end, you'll suffer on plane time. Mine stock were 3x3x22"s -----38 mph, now have 4x3x21 ----38 mph

 Ok thanks Randy useful to know what picture you are using.  38 is a good number

What's the equivalent in pitch any idea?
Or is there a chart to find out?
