Nice set-up. I am seeing those rims more and more on trucks. :huh:

A 30hp wetshot is not going to push your 4.3 above 8cyl hp territory that push a lot of other Alpha 1's so I don't see the problem.
And most 8cyls don't have cavitation either if you have a similar prop. An Alpha 1 comes with 14.5" props but I put a 15" Black Max on mine and it has a LOT more prop area..... I cannot believe it would cause cavitation problems if I had put it under a 5.0/5.7
Get a "High Five" prop with a 19" pitch. I think GJarrett was eluding to a 14.25" or 15" Diameter not Pitch prop.
The 19" high Five in a 185 w/4.3L should provide you solid "SAFE" performance.
I don't think NOS has a safe place on boats either.
