let me see if even an old burnout can master this...

METAL BIRD = $60.00 (48 Yacht, also used for convenience on 240 BR)

LARGER OF THE TWO CHROME PLASTIC BIRDS = $18 (SR-1 ERA)

SLIGHTLY SMALLER CHROME PLASTIC BIRD= $17 (FasTech ERA)

3 BIRDS
2 MATERIALS

large quantity of confusion. :p

I hate to argue with you Magicflaot, but here's the deal- The small Bird I bought, #174078, 4.5"X4.5" isn't metal, its plastic and I paid $59.83 for it. I questioned Formula via e-mail about why it was so much more expensive and here's the answer I got cut and psated from thier reply:
"If you would like a small one the smallest one that we have is part number 174078. Yes this new smaller bird is a lot more expensive, then the larger one. We do not have a good explanation for this one."

Wether or not that means the larger ones will go up too, I'm only guessing and as dealer I'm sure you know more than me, but I still think it's a logical conclusion....

Bottom line, it doesn't really matter all that much- the price difference we're talking about is a few gallons of marina gas, I just think it's strange-

OK,this is my last post on this subject,I hope:D Older bird is about 6-1/2",$17,newer one is 5-1/2",$18. The $60 one is much smaller,and I could have sworn it was metal,but I must have been wrong,never gave it much thought as I doubted I would rarely sell one,as I don't sell the 48 Yacht and only a few 240BR's. But ya'll must admit that we really didn't have many more interesting things to discuss on a cold weekend other than this,and it has been fun.:drink:
