So, apparently there is a "setting 6" specified for Sensenich ground adjustable props. I contacted them about ordering a replacement gauge pin and he mentioned that they have the CAD files & drawings available for a setting 6, they just don't offer the actual pin. I'm going to drop the docs off to a local machine shop and see what they want to make one. I'd LOVE to have a teeny bit more cruise. My 914 climbs at over 1500 fpm on takeoff, so I can safely trade a little climb for cruise. From pin 4 to 5, I saw a 4-5 knot increase in speed (and frankly no measurable change in climb). My plane trues out right at 130 knots at my normal cruise altitudes (usually 7K-10K). Bumping that to 135 would be A+.

Anyone else already gone down this path?
