    FNG needs prop help

    Am new to the forum. I have acquired a Ranger 451V with a 92 Merc XR6 150hp. It has a 4 blade SS prop with no identifier on it . No name, diameter, or pitch markings. It does have a number stamped on the leading edge of the hub . Have tried searching the number on google, but no joy. How do I identify this prop or is it even possible to ID it? Am including some pics of the prop if anyone can help.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the reply. Up to now I had no idea at all. Any way to figure out the pitch?

    Thanks Racer, but no joy. It is not a current production prop and nothing in the obsolete part number search. Ill try searching prop manufacturers and see if that produces any fruit.

    Any prop shop should be able to measure the pitch. You can also do a rough calculation of pitch from gps speed and rpm...

    Looks like a predator. They were built in Springfield Mo I believe. No longer in business.

    I have a 3 blade Predator with no markings or numbers on it but it does have “Predator” cast into the hub. Handles awesome with absolutely no hop on my Varmint (Vector hull). I *think* mine is a 24 pitch but who knows...

    Nothing cast into the hub to indicate it is a Predator but the boat came out of Mount Vernon,MO which is close to Springfield.
