I thought that 390 Lycoming was an experimental engine, not certificated. Must not be the case if they're gonna STC it onto a certificated airplane.
The standard prop for a stock GO-300 powered C-175 according to my Spruce catalog is an 84" McCauley. They also have a 90" listed for seaplanes.

Yes, I forgot that the 175 had a geared engine, thus the thrust line is higher than the 172. Hopefully, they'll keep that thrust line the same.
