There's a guy in Moss Bluff that modifies the reed plate on those motors. It will get it close to one with the 40 tohatsu carbs with a lot less money. I can give you his name and number if you want.
PT SRA is a great prop....hard to say what pitch you will need. The only way to get it right on the money is to run it with a tach and see how many rpm's you turn at WOT. The man that does the hop ups on the smaller motors name is Richard Foreman. He does good work,someone I know recently had him do some mods to a 40 merc. He is turning a 15 pitch 4 blade 6,000 rpms right at 50mph. I can get his contact number tomorrow if anyone is interested.
