Are there any stainless props out there that totally trash the acme props? What would be the pros and cons?

if you have a custom prop made maybe... but it's hard to beat the new ACME CNC props. save your money and get an ACME.

I agree with 79. Night and day difference between the mandrel bent props and the new CNC Acmes. OJ XMP is also a good choice for CNC props, but not sure what they offer for CC's.
SS props wont be as smooth as the CNC Nibrals- not sure how they will compare in other aspects of performance. The major drawback they have is that they dont bend easy when you hit something- all the force will be transmitted to the shaft, strut and transmission instead. |
