I just purchased a really clean 2005 Yamaha two stroke 90 to be installed on a 1988 Montauk. I've found some info through searching and realize there is a ton of info that is confusing me.

13" x 17" Yamaha Painted Stainless Steel
13-1/4" x 16" Yamaha Performance Series Three Blade
13-1/4" x 15" Stiletto Advantage 4.25
13-1/4" x 15" Turbo 1 4.25

This is the list that I've found here and on the other site. Tom seems to recommend the stiletto quite a bit, and I'm leaning towards that prop, but my question is, is the hole shot good with this prop? also should I see 40+ mph with this prop? I'm ready to pull the trigger now on buying, I just want to make sure I get it right the first time. I really would like to see 40+ if I can without sacrificing much hole shot. If this is the correct prop for my setup, where is the best place to purchase? Thanks for the advice in advance.-Jack
