        A six horse prop? Try and find a good used replacement as millions were made and a new one will cost more than the motor is worth. 380958, 386955, and 753745 are part numbers used for these props.

        If you are in a pinch, you can drill some holes in the prop and run some screws into the rubber hub and use a brass drive pin to get you going. Does your prop have the drive pin at the rear of the prop? If so, any prop from a 5, 5.5, or 6 horse from ’54 and up will fit.

              Try placing a want ad in the classified section here. They are a common prop and you shouldn’t have any trouble finding one.

                Yes, they can be found used for a reasonable price…Is your three blade prop marked at all? The 9.5/10hps used an 8″ pitch 3 blade which is too much pitch. Usually the 7″ pitch 3 blade works out OK for the 6hps though…
