Default Prop Size
That would mean using about a 9x6 on my Pro .46 to get it going at 16,000 RPM????
I doubt you'd do very well sizing your prop for max rpm.

Most engines have a position considerably below peak rpm where they produce the most torque. For your 46, I'd guess it's in the 11,500 to 12,500 rpm range. (Perhaps lower)
