Stall speeds - Bottom of green arc

My 337B has the Horton STOL kit. No stall speed. Elevator runs out of authority before wing stalls (power off). Power on, nose is so high it scares you into lowering it.

I'd love to have a STOL kit, but all I'm wondering is why a stock G model stalls 5 mph faster than a heavier stock P model?

Interesting. I've stalled my Robertson, and it should have a lower stall speed than a Horton.

I have no idea why the stall speed changed in 1978.
