Does anyone happen to know the dimensions of the Barracuda impeller? I have a hybrid pump that has what I believe to be the Hammerhead impeller installed. That impeller looks to be about 4-7/8" diameter and the plate assembly (the part that slings the water) is about 1" wide. The other impeller is also 4-7/8" diameter, but is 5/8" wide. My understanding is that a Barracuda impeller is much smaller than either of these, but I don't have dimensions - can anyone help with that?
 
I have the hammerhead/barracuda hybrid. I did not open the housing up to check the hammerhead size, but the barracuda impeller measures the same as yours. The older barracuda may have measured smaller than the hybrid.

I also have a dart/snapper hybrid and the diameter of the two are the same (smaller than the hammerhead/barracuda). However, the impeller thickness of the snapper is thinner than the dart.

I suspect the diameter of any hybrid has to be the same with the width determining the model. Hope this helps.

You are welcome. You helped me confirm that the hammerhead comes preinstaled. I just assumed it was but your measurements confirmed it.
