See the above post. Waste of time. As far as using it for a few months while waiting to get a good one, you'd play hell trying to explain to the manager at NAPA why you used it for so long and now want your money back. You'd end up paying $300 for the NAPA then another $500 for a good one. $800 to save some money? Naw. A good one only cost a couple hundred more than the NAPA. The NAPA sounds like you may not be able to get any more, and may be for good reason like, say, over half of them aren't balanced correctly or something like that. You know how I feel about it.

PS: before blaming your old prop for the sole purpose of vibration(unless the boot is torn and spurted its guts out), take it out (just like the manual says) and drive it and see if it is still there. If the vibration is still there then the prop isn't the problem anyway. Look for broken motor mounts, transmission mount, broken tranny crossmember, etc.
