I was at my dealers last week and he said that my shaft was the same size as the 35 mini and I have the 27 mini , IF the bigblade does fit on my shaft what kind of preformence changes might I see if any , have any of you guys tryed this in the past or present.

If you have a light boat you might like it. But I would think running a heavy boat or heavy load, that it may be too much prop.

I got a 23 mini which is the LA mud special, and it came with the big blade prop. the same as my sons 35 runs and it pushes my 15/54 allweld 23 mph w/ just me, but Im around 285 and a hundred pound dog. once it wears a little it will tote load good too

I think the biggest problem is that the LA Special is sometimes called a mini, while the Mini HD Lite is also called a mini. Since Slingshot said he's got a 27, I'm assuming it's the Mini HD Lite (the real mini). The Big Blade will fit, but just barely clears the cavitation plate. It's been done before though.
