2 or 3 blade props

[Tyke]

x440/2 vs. x440/3 Any diff.?

Will one give more or less lift to the front than the other?

Yeah,one more blade...... ....... which translates to one blade in the water at all times while running which in turn will load the motor a bit more......but will help boat handling.....and.......you can run the motor a bit higher on a tunnel boat without the boat porpoising.....and....... 3 blades work great on surface drive monos for most of the same reasons..........yadda,yadda,yadda........ :blink:

All depends on your set-up. I'm running a stock 440/3 on a K&B SS (stock) bolted on the back of a leecraft. Works good for me......

I've always found 3 blade props to be smoother running and faster through the corners.
