Longrodder had a good running 21/2.5 200 with a tempest. I can't remember what pitch. Maybe he will comment.

26p Bullet cut chopper??
The tempest has good bow lift for the less HP motors. This frees the hull up better at slower speeds. I bet the Fury4 would also work great.

I'm currently running a 25" Tempest, (A-40 series), on my 21xd Bullet w/ a 200xri on it.
Cajun...what speeds u getting? Has that 40 been worked?
FastBird, I'm currently turning my 25" A-40 6600 rpm's @ 77 mph. I have a modified (by JSRE), 200xri and am running it 2" below the pad. Currently have my lower unit @ Bob's to have a Big Foot low water intake & CLE installed on it. Hoping I can get it up to 6800 rpm's (that's where jay wants me to run it at, max rpm's. Motor is supposed to be rated @ 240 HP after rebuild, nothing radical) and some where close to 80 mph. Yes the prop has been B&B by Josh @ Steve's Custom Prop's. I picked up 150 rpm's and 2 mph after I got the prop back from Josh. I don't know what prop I'll end up with after I get the lower unit back and see what it will do?
