If that's the prop I think it is, it's the one AMD used on the FAR23 version
of the 601XL.

Nope. The AMD prop is a 68x57 wood/composite...at least on my aircraft. I
suspect a 64x43 would be badly underpitched.

Without a doubt there are some great wooden prop makers out there. But they ain't cheap. And since they are in most cases handmade getting the exact same thing twice is tough.
Sensenich, on the other hand, has years of experience making certified props that have to be the same every single time. And for the record my one off prop is balanced as well as I can measure. And believe me when I say, when it was at my house I tried a bunch of different things to check the balance.

Their website has plenty of info including a section that deals with specific engines and experimental planes.
This guy can answer ALL your questions.
