Deliveries from Mercury have been sporadic. We currently have about 150 part numbers on back order, some as far back as May 2021. However in general we are able to fill most of our orders in a timely fashion..

And more good news- We received notification last week the Mercury is going to have an 8% increase May 15.

I had actually looked into/gotten pricing to reverse engineer and cast some DPX pinion gears, as that was always the weak point in mine.
Give me part numbers and I will check.
