4.3 Mercruiser MPI SX19 factory prop question
 
Anyone know what the factory prop pitch is on the 4.3L Mercruiser MPI Alpha One?
I've got a 2007 model SX19 but previous owner painted antifoul all over the outdrive including the prop so I don't know what the factory prop pitch is. It's the original aluminium prop on the 4.3L MPI Alpha leg....

thx

Most likely a 14.25 x 19". Did they put the antifoul paint inside the prop hub too? Thats where you will find the prop info.

HI Electrosilver, not trying to steal this thread, but since you mentioned that the outdrive was painted, are the sacrificial Anodes covered with paint too or are they still exposed? I ask because if they are covered, they can no longer help protect your outdrive from Galvanic corrosion and in time, that can end up costing you a pretty penny or two...


Just my 2¢ worth,
