If you have a Zenoah - you should be using a 1/4" Shaft. Most places carry them. Check these places:

you can use ANY 1/4 prop on the 3/16 drive ... simply use the adapter included with the prop ( new ones that is )

Which prop ? Theres a LOT to it besides just picking one out . What style hull ? Who makes the hull ? id the engine modded ? If so , by whom ? G-23 is it still air-cooled , or did you water cool it ( add the water jacket to the jug )
Any engine changes what-so-ever ? Add a tuned pipe , or running a canister or ?
What kind of weight is the hull , if its not a known manufacturers ?
Pics of the hardware setup and the hull ( if unknown ) helps a LOT ...
There are MANY variances that regulate which prop would / should work best ( for starts anyway .... there is ALWAYS the trial and error test which usually ends up being the better option )
