Default RE: Strange Question about thrust

I suppose it could be the same engine turning two brands of props of the same size and pitch, or the same brand and size but with a wide blade prop. A wider blade will push more air and be more efficient at lower speeds with more thrust. They would also take both more HP and thrust at any given speed. But I doubt you could make a prop wide enough to absorb twice the power.
