G'day Mate,
Yes it can, we run 12x6 APC on Skyraider Mk1 trainer, flys great, will give about 9,500 RPM on the ground, but we use an idle bar or hotter plug, than an OS #8.

Why do you you run a prop that runs 6500 less rpm then the engine makes peak power at just curious
An os46 can turn upwards of 17000rpm
