McMaster-Carr out of Atlanta has the bottles for the drives. I ordered one several years ago. Under $10 bucks. BBBBut You have to make your own fitting for the bottom.

Wow! That is SWEET. Must sound awsome. What are the gauges on the remote oil filter pads, oil pressure? When I changed my motor this winter I drained the drive reservoir bottle while it was easy to get to. The drive still had oil in it. When I started it up for the first time the alarm buzzer would not shut off. I had oil pressure and the engine was not hot. It took me a few minutes to figure out that the reservoir bottle being empty was the cause. Duh! Good luck!

Madcow, those motors look sweet, I like the green and purple. Are they pushing alot more hp than the stock 500s. You should easily be in the 80s, My buddies and mine 2000 42ss with twinn 500s with boxes does 75.2, before boxes 72. Youve got a nice ride, I like the three motors, post some speeds once you get her dialed in, take care
