Hello Paul,
What was the story with your prop? Why are you replacing it? How much? What do you know about governors? Is the one on my 180 lyc with a 76" McCauley likely to work?
And on the subject of props guys, what is the status of the var pitch development project that some of us got excited about?

It was the wrong prop for my new 2000 hour TBO engine. The FAA would not sign 
off on it for minor RPM and pitch change reasons.  Excellent condition.

Var pitch prop is on back burner as John Moran is making six pinion
planet carriers for Tracy.
