[C320-list] PropShaft Dimensions and the Kiwi Prop

[brucestanley]

Hi Jeff
re the Shaft Dimensions and refitting my Kiwi Prop

My KiwiProp requires a taper of 1" to 3/4".
The taper is about 2 and 3/4" long.
I hope to fit it this coming Monday.

I am wondering if I need to order a new 1" s/s shaft to fit this Kiwi Prop 
taper?
Does the standard SAE J755 mean anything in regards to this 1" to 3/4" 
taper?
Thanks Jeff
