Thanks everyone. I looked at the motor last night and it is already mounted all the way up. I guess I'm getting all I can get. I had a 13" pitch prop but it was over revving, about 6000 rpms, so I went to the 15". I've thought about a 15" stainless but I don't think I'd get much more out of it.

I don't do much WOT running anyway and the cruising performance is great. It does about 23 mph at 3500 rpms and uses so little fuel I think it might be solar powered in some way. Overall, I've been very pleased and I got a great deal on the motor.
