I don't think Fred deals with CMI anylonger but he may have some old stock. The CMI's are great but now we're really moving out of this guys budget.

I ran set of Lightnings on my 502 BBC Jet boat....Of course I always ran in fresh water but I was really happy with them....Great product for the money, if you run in FRESH water only.......................Great fit and finish and the powder coating held up very well. If I was in the market for a new set to run in fresh water only they would be my choice!

Jan over there is a great guy to deal with!

I really liked my lightnings,had them on my boat for 5 seasons in fresh water and they still looked like new when I took them off and switched to stainless marine 3's because of reversion concerns when I went to bigger heads,Smitty
