Gear change on a Number six
 

How difficult is it to change the gear ratio on Number Sixes? I want to go to 1.35 from the 1.24.

Most of the people I seen send it to that guy in Fl, starts with a C ??

Its Collabella(sp?)
To change it yourself, you need the tools. From what I understand, Merc now only sells the tools in a package to do all of the speedmaster drives. I think it is around $7500. Not worth it unless you are doing a bunch of them.

Thanks Eddie thats it:D

I think I remember how to to do it ? :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Call or stop and ask Keith. He might have the tools and knowledge!!

Or pull those heavy things off and order up (2) Konrads...I'll give you a deal!

last time I asked kieth he did not do thr school or get tools do to lack of alot of 6s around I had asked him because when I get a Gun will hav 3as prob

I know someone local who might be able to help. I'll check with him and post up tomorrow.

www.offshore-performance.com in MD. They have the tools; and John Smith aka Pwrbt33 here on OSO is a Certified Mercury VI drive master technician. He REALLY knows his stuff. He has been rigging/building/fixing 800-1500HP setups for several years; and he is more than friendly.

I can have them done

Brad,
You know a guy named George who is local. He has a shop in Fox lake. He does not do 6 drives but he knows somebody who does and can hook you up with him. Give George a call at 630-240-5401.

We know George. He's a good guy. Thanks Smitty.

As mentioned above ya need the tools.
I just went to a 1.24 to a 1.35.
The ratios are changed in the uppers.
Its is not that difficult.

The big expense is the tools However we bought them used
in the classified section of this website for half the cost.

Can we rent them from you? Seriously?
