G'day Stas
For a 91 fx the size 2.25" or 2.50" spinner should be fine.

The spinner size depends more on the plane, than just on the engine size. For
instance, this P-51 mustang calls for a .46 size engine, but uses a huge spinner.

This Cessna 182 has a big .91 four stroke in it, but uses a tiny spinner.

And US Navy warbirds with radial engine, such as the Corsair, Wildcat, Hellcat, and Bearcat, use only prop hub.

Also, the spinner size depends on the size of the plane. For instance, a .40 size 58" span P-51 Mustang calls for a smaller spinner than a .90 size 71" span P-51 Mustang.
