Update.

I bolted on a nice used 115 fast strike on sunday. Took it out for a couple test runs
Impressions: holeshot better than my 70, not out of this world but not bad. would like to see it improved
Handling was pretty good, no venting in hard corners. not the best handling prop but above average
Plane speed was in the 18mph range.

42.5mph GPS
5050-5100 rpm WOT
alum 14" dia 19" pitch (looks like stock OMC)
with 2:1 ratio LU it puts me at 9.3% slip

WOT range 4500-5500

What would you do? 17 pitch SS or 17 pitch 4 blade Al
Any brands props you would recomend?
