Larry I beleive you answered your own question when you said 70hp at 2300 rpm. I think that is close to correct. Question is what about cruise speed? I have a 0200 that I will be installing on my KR2S that I removed from my Citabria, I was using a 69X48 McCaully prop. I could get 2610 RPM static, 2700 90 mph climb, 2750 redline 120mph cruise. The way I understand it the higher the expected cruise speed the shorter the prop needs to be, but at the same time it needs more angle. I wonder if you could ask Ed Sturba about shortning your prop about 2" to get your RPM up since that last 2" is probably what the hardest for your engine to turn. If you would like to experament with my 69 by 48 your are welcome. It also has a bulk head and 9" spinner.
