I just bought a 2007 621 dvs with a 225 ho e-tec that came with 2 new props. 3 blade viper and a 4 blade cyclone. My question is if i dont want to switch them out when conditions change which one should i leave on? Is there a fuel consumption change? If i wanted to sell one, what other motor will it fit? What are they worth? Thanks for any kind of advice on this equipment.

I think you'll be alot happier with the 4 blade cyclone. You'll get better fuel ecomony with the 4 blade. Those props will only work on 150 and up omc motors. I'm sure if their in good shape their worth around $250.00 If i were you I would keep both, then you will have a spare.

What pitch are the props?

If Eric Olsen see's this he will be able to tell you more about proper propping then you ever knew there was to know.

You could try a PM on this site but I'm sure he's a busy man, I don't know how often he's here.
