people sure like to over think things. The same prop can be put on any
engine of any horse power and if it is turned 2300 rpm then the thrust is
the same.

Not necessarily. If one of the engines has a larger frontal area then part
of the flow will be blocked and that engine/prop will produce less thrust.
The extreme example is the engine that's larger than the prop diameter.

there you go thinking again.
you just added something into the question that wasn't there
Just stick to the original question and the answer is still the same.
