Default RE: Does cowl size make a signifance difference in prop selection.

The size of the prop remains the same. It will place the same load on the engine that it did before. The issue is the amount of air that is moved and flows cleanly through it, which is the reason for moving the engine a bit more forward on round cowled aircraft.
