I'll e-mail you his address if you will give me yours.

I have also purchased from Shawn. He even helped me get them shipped to Australia.

I can put you in touch with my source if you'd like.

Yes, I too like the VP accessory layout better than Merc's.

I am looking for a 496 volvo penta motor.
Is this something Shawn could help me with?

The 496 engine is a great engine - from Volvo and Mercruiser

and it is easy to upgrade this engine natural aspirated to over 600 HP

just go to search "Raylar " here at offshoreonly or look at their website www.raylarengine.com
