OK peeps hows it going.21 1/2 aftershock Toronato here 6.2 liter and spinnignthe hell out of the 19 pitch Rev4 about 5500+ RPM according to the ever so accurate tach. Anyways which prop would be the best choice for the top end we wakeboard occasionally so i am not to concerned with bottom end just as much top as i can get while running about 4800 to 5000 RPM. I dont think with that motor i will have any problem puling wakeboarders.Well any input would be appreciated

Call Bronson Hill propellers in Santa Ana. Give them all the details, and they will set you up.

Sounds to me your motor package is too stout for a 19P prop. I bet if you stepped up to either a 21P Rev-4 or a 22P Bravo 1 4 blade, you'd get your RPMs down and improve midrange accel and top speed but a substantial margin.
I wasnt aware the rev limiter on a 6.2 was 5500 rpm!
If you have a prop reworked I highly recommend York Propellers in Fullerton. That guy is amazing.

not bashing hill or anything, but york has definately done some great work for me over the years, never been disapointed.

22 pitch bravo 1 prop. 5500 RPM is way too much for that engine.
