What props are available for the 582?

I've been reading most of the old posts on Warp Drive and IVO props. A lot about stainless steel tape strips coming off the IVO props. I guess you spend the extra $ and buy the prop with the metal leading edges. I think I've decided on the IVO just because of the one turn twists all three blades at the same time. Now to decided between the three blade ultralight or the two blade medium. I like the idea of a shorter three blade as I fly off grass at home, and who knows where I may land...

Here is a little video of mine from a Kitfox III with 582 and 68" 3 blade GSC with 18 degree pitch by round about 5800 rpm static.

For info, my IAS is circa 10 mph less than a PA18 and Kitfox IV which fly byside.

Great video!!! I need to go back and watch the rest you've made. I have not read through my log books in months, but I seem to remember the pitch on the prop is 17 degrees. The builder took great notes on performance at different settings. Due to its age and reputation, I'm moving on to a composite prop.

I am building a new (old) kitfox 2, and this thread looked like the best thread to ask this question. I have a gsc 3 blade to install on a 582 C box. I have the bolts required for attaching the prop to the c box. My question is, I've read that 8M studs are needed (between bolts). It looks like these studs add to the shear strength of the prop to c box installation (to spin the prop). Where do I get these studs? Thanks.
