Why rebuild an engine when can can prop it properly? That's stupid...

google donzi zx 22 props. not that it is the right thing to do. but majority of the props i have tried. others have tried and seen better mph then what i am seeing with correct rpm. i am seeing the correct rpm, but i am not seeing the correct speed. i am going to assume that means the engine is down on power. is that wrongful to believe?

If you’re hitting your target rpm then you’ve got enough power.

Not necessarily. If his goal is say 70mph but at target RPM he's only getting 52mph then he's got to either add RPM or move more water (more prop) to reach it. Being that his engine won't support his goals currently I don't see any other way than rebuilding/replacing the old 454.
