imco extreme sc ?
 

Next year I plan to up grade power to approx 750+
currently at 600+ and have an xz drive. I ran across an imco sc for $5500.00 w/ 20 hrs in good shape. Question... Should I pick this up?

I need a seasoned vetrans advice.

I recently put a set of imco shortie 2" lowers on xz drives behind 496 ho's. I haven't ran them yet due to cold weather. Anything to be concerned about there?

It would be helpful to know what kind of problems you have experienced with the IMCO's. Thanks

I dont see any particular problems with the SC. They suck just as much as a Bravo XR. The design of both are so similar, they both have the same weakness. After all, Imco uses Merc gears, nothing special there. Although I broke an Imco vertical shaft last year, I believe the shafts are a bit better. I had the old style vertical shaft with the oiling hole. Their new shaft design doesnt have that useless hole, so may be better.

Thanks guys. I found out that it is almost four years old and the lower is a two inch shorter version.(I ran the numbers thru imco) I think I'm goiung to pass. Man I love this site :cool:

My father has over 200 hrs on 575 sci's running through Bravo xr's on his 36 Baja. Never experienced a problem with drives, so what seems to be the problem with summing them up as they "just suck"?
