New MT Prop
Hello - I am getting ready to pull the trigger on a new MT 3 blade prop part number PROP MTV12B/183-59B.
My 9A has an O360 currently running a FP. Just curious to hear from anyone with the same setup. Also curious to hear opinions about the P860 governor from MT. Thanks, Ross |
We have that on our 7, been running sweet for 10 years now. Had a low use inspection at 6 years, no issues. Governor is same.
Pulls really hard on takeoff, cruises very smoothly. Can decelerate a bit quick, so we always land with prop out at 2300 where we were cruising. Still loads of power available for a missed. You will not regret it ! |
Glad to hear it. Thanks for the feedback. Much appreciated.

I couldn't be more pleased with mine installed on a -7 with IO-360-M1B. Outstanding performance, durable and really smooooth! No required maintenance between overhauls other than a visual inspection. Since the complete spinner assy. is included, installation is a snap-bolt it on, safety wire and you're done.
MT governor has also been trouble free. |
Good news! Thank you. Installation will be a bit tougher since I am converting from FP, but shouldn't be too bad.
Thanks again! |
Get the prop omgomulator wrench from Allan at Anti Splat. Makes install and torque a cinch, but watch his video because a load of carp is talked about offset torquing. He explains it correctly and simply.

Got it ordered. Thanks again.

I have the same prop and governor setup. One exception, I'm running it on a Thunderbolt 390. I would echo what everyone else wrote. Smooth and trouble free. I doubt you would be disappointed.

What is the rule? |
Can only echo the positive comments made above, very pleased myself :)
Still running a P-420 governor, exchange P-860 on order... |
