Installed my Halo max this weekend. The mounting bolts that attach the wing plates to the Bravo upper are in the way to mount the top left bolt for the shower. The supplied 3/8-16 3" bolt is not long enough. I had to buy a 3.5" bolt to clear. This spaces the shower back a tad farther, but nothing rubs or hits. Can't wait to try it out. Last summer running with no shower, I had bad white chalking buildup on the upper even though the oil came out looking new.

I assure you - you won't have the white chalk present- It looks like you got everything cleaned off - I've used toilet bowl cleaner to get the outdrive like new. However, once I put the shower on - all I do is wax it a couple of times a season.

Is the heat issue the showers address applicable to VP drives, especially the duoprop? if so, do comparable components exist for the VP?

If you are referring to the Volvo Penta outdrive. As you know, heat is the biggest culprit to any motor, Simrek Drive showers (Halo Max) will lower your oil temperature 65 degrees. The Summit Max will lower the oil temperature 50-55 degrees.
Halo Fits on the Bravo outdrives and Summits fit on the Alpha outdrives. To my knowledge, I'm not sure if anyone has manufactured a drive shower for Volvo Penta outdrives. Hope this helps. Chuck Simrek Corporation |

I noticed you have some alternatives ones as well. Which ones do you like? The Sport Tech shower looks like a quality piece (I have to that one on of my boats, and think it works well). But need one more for the oth er boat and like the billet one you carry as well.
