Off topic - did you see the price of the new 3 Blade Raptor? $20,100! I was holding for a while to see what the pricing would be like and I'm glad that I moved on.

Because it's a 74" prop. From the same link:
"Propeller size note:

The 74" blade diameter propellers are applicable to all "A" model RVs plus the RV-8.

The 72" blade diameter propellers are recommended for all tailwheel aircraft (except the RV-8 as noted above) to ensure adaquate ground clearance for those models."
