We have a c/s Hartzell on the cub, came off a cherokee 6 years ago and was cut down, rounded, cut some more, squared, rounded etc until it would spin up.
Maule spinner on it and heavier than most on the nose. It's been on the cub since 1983, 160HP 0-320. On floats - Edo 2000's - with one person and half tanks there is no slide, comes up out of the water and flies off. With a load there is a slide but it really comes off well and just climbs. Don't have to lower the nose, just hold back pressure and up you go. at 24 squared in calm air on floats the GPS usually shows 106-110. Figure 7.5 to 8 gallons/hr. Just got to make sure the oil temp is up so you can cycle the prop on cooler mornings. MT looks great and so much lighter if starting from scratch. The firewall has a box cut out for the governor, otherwise pretty stock certified cub.
