    2006 Mercury 250 Pro XS set up on my 2000 Cobra Viper 201DC

    Got a line on a 2006 Mercury 250 Pro XS Serial# 1E000991. What prop would you suggest and motor height setup. Right now i have a 8" manual jack plate that came with my 2000 Mercury 225 OptiMax. Any and all help greatly appreciated.

    Also have a my old prop, a Mercury Trophy+ 25P. Its a 4 blade. I think I'm going to try that out first.

    Finally took the Cobra out today with new motor. Hole shot awesome. Started to chime at 67-69 mph. No tackle, gear or rods. I'll reload gear and run it again. I feel like the lower unit might be slightly longer than my old one. I'll measure prop height to boat height later today and adjust my manual jack plate accordingly.
