i am finishing up a 1985 30ft Velocity Twin Outboard Project.
I plan to re-install the 280s K-Planes that came with it.
I have a variety of the old style Merc Power Trim and K-Plane Pumps. I can't remember if the K-Plane Pumps are any stronger or faster than the trim puimps. Does anyone know?
I also plan to replace the Hydraulic Rams as they do not match. Other than Merc, does anyone have or know of another source I could get them from?
Is another indicator system available other than running manual cables up the dash?
Any info would be appreciated
