    General prop question

    My understanding is a prop can be changed +/- 1degree of pitch is this correct?Example you can have a 24p prop worked to a 23p or a 25p.

    Not 1 degree... But 1 inch of pitch up or down from it's original casting...

    I don't like pitching down, you lose bite. Pitch up only.

    Yep, pitched up always seems to make for a better prop in the end
