I use a McCauley 1A101/HCM clipped from 69 to 67 and re-pitched by the prop shop
specifically for my application (LSA speeds, gross)
I have the same prop on my 1973 C150L but in a 6948 configuration.
The HCM spacer gives you enough room to move the factory cowling forward and use
FAA/PMA spark plugs in all 8 positions.
You have to clip the tip down to 67" to provide enough ground clearance in case
your bungee fails at the same time you get a nose gear flat.
The extra weight up front helps keep you away from extreme Aft CG loadings where
non-linear stick input sensitivities appear to exist.
Check out McCauley manual no. 730720 or Bulletin P-0161-F for other options...

You have to clip the tips/diameter down to a 67" to provide enough ground clearance
in case your bungee fails at the same time you get a nose gear flat. On
some well used props, they are almost down to this diameter due to repairs over
the years. The service limit for a certified application is 67 on this model,
so if you found one just under, it might be had for a great price.

Al,
I'm using a three blade 68 inch warp drive. Not flying yet but the engines
running and feels good. I used Lightspeed plugs/adapter on the top cylinders
(ala AMD) so as to use the standard cowl with no "blisters"/prop extns etc.
Cheers

At an open house I flew to at Zenith two years ago, they were handing out
that decal for free. I put two on my XL. You may wish to email them to
see if they still have them and request they send you a couple, but they
are only about 150 - 200 mm long.
