Craig Colabella 407-498-0094 , St Cloud Fl........he ends up fixing alot of other peoples mistakes....30 years in the business of Mercury Drives.

Is he the one that does the bluprinting on the skegs,or subs it out?

skegs
 

don't think craig does that. i thought herring was doing it but don't know now that he's been bought out.
don't know if that even worth it unless racing supercat or something like that.
either way craig would know where to go, he knows almost everybody in the racing world.

like beckley said, craig fixes alot of these things for alot of other people.
i don't think anybody even comes close to how long craig has been doing drives.
wow craig must be really old!!!

Mark Wilson, who is on the board, does the skeg blueprinting as does Herring.

hey PIT give me a PM I did all the drives for the OL race team and service shop when I was there.

Rob spoke to Craig today and he still sends the skegs to Hering , there is a welding/fabrication shop in Florida near ocala that has been doing the skegs for years.hoping to get the phone # tomorrow morn

How big of a job is it to convert a wet sump to dry? If one was wanting dry sump drives is it feasible to do the conversion (if you don't have 6's at all) or just look for dry sump 6's. Just asking because I've seen wet sumps for sale much cheaper than dry......

I think its well worth it.If you dont have wet sumps allready it just depends on the market.Just depends on other work needed on the used drives.Randy had totally rebuilt my drives,bearings,gears,seals,U-joints,some shafts the year before.The conversion cost 12K with the converted skigs. Randy with Marine Drives has been around since the 80s or earlier.

Down here we have many great places to choose from:

Doller
BAM
TNT
Offshore Outdrives
Colabella
