    What are your WOT RPMS and what PTP now? Do you have a water pressure gauge?

    3” and you want a 23 tempest for that setup. It’ll be a 58-62 rig

    150 xs with 23p prop has a theoretical max speed of 63 mph at 0% prop slip (2.08 gear ratio & assuming 6000 rpm at wot)….but since 0% prop slip is impossible…..your probably set up pretty well (assuming your wot rpm is near 6000 and you have 15 psi of water pressure at wot).
