I got offered a proline compound today.Not real impressed but aparently they Warf OK.Now I have heard there are conversion plates available. Off hand I don't know riser length or what would be a good size limb for my wife's and my draw lengths 26 " and 27 " I hear they pre load and on certain size limbs stack.Who has done these conversions before and are there any tips you could pass on.I am thinking its a typhoon model.Could be a fun project .Do you know if theiy had rocketed pivots in the original limbs and would it be worth building new limbs to fit the original scockets or just use conversion plates.Its one like this.

Hiram will be along to give the straight skinny, but IIRC, there's the Proline and Proline XT (diamonds on the side of the limb pockets).

They make perfect Warf candidates for short draw (27" and shorter) folks because of the steep limbs pad angle. They tend to stack early and will give you all the performance you can get out of ILF limbs. Most limbs, that are marked for 25" risers will gain about 1# per inch of weight for every inch shorter the riser is. That will NOT apply to the Typhoon. It'll gain almost 2#'s per inch.

If it were me, I'd I get hold of Hiram or Johndo and have them Warf'd (converted to ILF).

I think the length of the riser is 20.5" so short limbs will give you a 61.5" bow; mediums a 63.5" bow and longs a 65.5" bow.

Here's a chart I put together some time back. It'll help you figure bow length with different limbs. Some folks have found it useful:

They make really good risers for Frankenbow projects as well. Using them with different bolt on limbs of different lengths and draw weights.
