Best prop for 1957 Cessna 180

I bought a 1957 Cessna 180 a few months ago that is going to need a new prop. I'm wondering what everyone recommends? It's a standard 0-470K engine. I'd like to stick with two blades, but would like to go to a bigger prop (it had a McCauley C66, 82"), I'd like to go 86" or even 88"...what's my best options?

I went with a C66 with a 88" and couldn't be more happy. Certainly an improvement over the tired old stock 82".

This is on a C180A / O-470-K as well.
