Subject: | O-360 and Catto FP prop |
I myself am a CS kind of guy, but I've a friend with an IO-360 angle valve
in an installation that calls for FP. He has run a Sensenich, American,
Prince, and finally a Cato three blade. The performance increase with the
Cato was spectacular. Were FP my bag, that is surely how I would go.

Subject: | retorquing bolts on catto prop. |
I am doing the annual on my 6A. I re-torqued the prop bolts 22hrs ago
(though that was about 10 months). Check list calls for re-torquing them,
but I don't see that it's worth disturbing the thing. Catto recommends a
much longer re-torquing interval than the average wood prop anyway, due, I
guess, to the fiberclass outer layer of the prop.
Any opinions on this ?
