So I made a brushless SC, and I have an EFlite Park 450 890 KV, and I was wondering... Until I get back to my LHS, How do I fit the stock prop on it???(sithout drilling???)
Is it even possible?

Not possible without drilling. The Master Air Screw props super durable, will be a direct fit for the E Flite and Dillzio is having great success with the 9X7. APC props are also good.

<blushes> cool I'm a reference now ;D
Yes, the 9x7 master airscrew does go very nicely on my cub with stock everything, it's just heavy because of all my reinforcements so I had to prop up a bit. To be honest I can't wait to upgrade my powerplant so I'll have a bit more control over the plane in windy conditions.
The master airscrew props really are in a league of their own. Infinitely more durable than the APC-E style ones or the classic GWS 10x6. With a prop saver they are practically indestructible.
Regarding getting the stock prop to fit on the park 450, I think it would depend entirely on what sort of prop adapter you have for the motor. If it's 4mm then it will match the stock prop and you shouldn't have any problems. If it's smaller than the hole in the stock prop the only way to get it to fit is to use a prop shaft adapter, but for the sake of getting a crappy stock prop to work I wouldn't waste my time.
If your prop adapter is too big for the hole in the stock prop then that's the easiest of all to fix. Just drill it out by hand by clamping a drill bit in a vice and carefully rotating the prop to drill a nice straight hole.
If you can post a pic of the prop and the prop adapter you're fitting it to I should be able to let you know with a bit more accuracy.
