Does this work?
Not giving up on the FA, just need to find one that works. I want to get on with the project while I work with Wayne wire to get the FA made.

I will get that part number for the FA this weekend. No mods to the FA at all. It dropped right on the three studs that hold the original on. Like in my post the only thing is you have to lengthen the studs and add a spacer to clear the throttle cable. I have run mine this way for over a year with no issues.
Pics will be here saturday morning.

This is a maybe.........
Photo just above (post #55) of the 'Unconstrictor' appears by looks to be just like Mercruiser #861443T
1st photo: The Unconstrictor sold on ebay. No longer available as the seller just had a certain quantity years back.
It's very possible the Unconstrictor decal is placed over the manufacturer and part # stamped in arrestor as this is an old repackaging trick. If someone has one, would you be willing to verify ?
2nd Photo : Mercruiser #861443T (notice it has stamped on top 'Barbron' and appears (try to read # on photo) to have Barbron Part #61443. These are availble thru Mercruiser for purchase.
3rd Photo: Mallory Marine says 9-31105 is a replacement for Merc #861443T. but no longer available..but it is..see next line
Sierra's parent company bought Mallory. Sierra's part # should be 18-31105 if they make/sell these but I can't find them yet.
2.05 element height / 7" Diameter / 3.95 " throat (mounting) / 2.975" overall Height
Again, the Mallory FA's are shown here : https://issuu.com/marinedirect/docs/mallory/224
And there dimension's are shown here: https://issuu.com/marinedirect/docs/mallory/224

I use a Fluke temperature probe at work to measure process temps and after reading this thread I had to find out what temps I have under the hatch. Hot as hell day on lake Lanier yesterday with air temps in the mid 90's and surface temps over 100.
