Those seem like low numbers for that engine. You might want to go to a lighter load prop and get the rpms in the 6200 to 6500 area Maybe a 25x10 bolly or 26x10 mezjlick im not really sure but i know a 25x10 will bring the numbers up and add some life to your engine.

Just curious, what is all tose engine rpm's mean? I think engine thrust would be lot more usable information.
For example if I have Menz 28x10 narow blade prop I will show higher RPM than Menz S 28x10 but the Menz S will produce lot more thrust. That is the information I would like to see.
