Hey, just to keep things hoppin here, I am going to send my REV 4 in to get massaged, after talkin to the prop guy and doing some research I think it is worth it.

Factory props leave a little on the table, i had my Pro series yamaha done and it made quite a improvement.

So I will keep you posted on the results.

Blueprinted basically, make sure all the blades are matching, verify cupping and pitch

Moreyes,

Not saying don't spend the money on this. But I will say one thing about Mercury props. These props are some of the finest built props ANYWHERE. I never did make it to the factory when I was suppose to take a tour, but I have heard some pretty incredible things about there prop building operation. I know a lot of guys who will change there hub on a non Mercury outboard in order to run a Mercury prop. If you haven't hit anything with your Rev 4, I think you will be amazed on just how good it actually will be.

Yes they are by far some of the best props out there, but there is always manufacturing glitches.

Anyway I have a good base line, well see.

BTW fishing the FLW Leaugue, got to beat those Ranger guys <'((^)))< to the fish

Let us know the results on your prop. I would be interested to know if they do anything to it at all.
