I was not sure what it was, bought it new in 1985, and finally finished it...(thought the Curare was out of production by then). If someone has a pic of a Curare or Atlanta, I would appreciate seeing it. tyvm...Big_G

Not to worry Curares are pretty cool too!

You should let that Rossi really do some talking, try a APC prop. The prop in your photo is mostly all scream with no bite. JMHO

Correct! Everyone ran big pitch APC 12/10 props on the more powerful engines like the OS 61SF P ABC.

I'm not saying you should change prop size as we are talking about (your) Old School. Plus you may not want to fool with the pipe going to a larger size prop. JMO that a APC prop would do a better job for you.
