I recently purchased a 4 blade trophy prop. I have a Nitro 160 (16') boat with 90 merc. I have anti feedback stering. With the 3 blade Laser 2 I have no problems. The cavition plate is set a little to the left side. With the 4 blade it is hard to turn left, it doesn't pull left just hard to turn. RPM's are correct on both props. Glenn as usual nailed it 1 pitch lower than the 3 blade. I like the 4 blade, it is very shallow here in Loisiana. It really helps get on plane faster. I hope someone can help, should I move the cavation, if so which way?:wacko::unsure:

On the Trophy's (or four blades in general) I remove the torque tab and either put the flat block plate over the hole or leave it empty. The four blades are more balanced around the hub and divert much less torque. Try a run without the tab and see how you like it. ;)
