TTT since I recently saw someone describe their castings as state of the art. I would beg to differ. And they couldn’t give 2 schits when an issue, or in this case, production run issues.

Buyer beware.

To the top. Don’t buy these without checking.

Merc doesn’t care , they know about these, and still sells them.

No prob.

Thanks fir the bump.

I helped Mercruiser and they bumped ne to the side.

Can’t fathom howm many boats with merc power we’d have iver the tears + merc oarts reparing them, friends, and customers.

My 02 is Merc doesn’t give s flying fuk about most things. Can’t even make a pair of small exhaust manifolds. ‘But we win sll these awards……” Lolololololol.
