Mark,
The original props were Federal 24x28 (3-blade)- HX300 #7 Cup Nibral. If you added a tower or you tow a larger tender, you may want to consider going to a 4-bladed prop otherwise the 3 blades are most efficient.
The 450 Cummins were rated at 2600 WOT. Full load you should be able to reach 2650 and light load 2700 (clean fuel, clean bottom, engines running properly with good injectors and Turbos).
Send me an e-mail and I can send you a performance sheet for a 38 with the 450 Cummins showing speeds at all RPMs and fuel burn.
