I have what I believe is a 59
I have what I believe is a 59 or 60 Ford thunderbird 318 in my old boat. Not sure if I have the right prop on it but when I put it in gear and accelerate the rpms are there but doesnt seem like the prop is turning fast enough. Is this the transmission slipping and if so what causes it to slip. Or do I have the wrong prop on it. When I look at the prop under water looking at it from the back of the boat it is turning clockwise and it is a RH prop. I think that is right. Its a 19' wood boat.
