I was also considering one. I'm thinking the haylo type especially with the ITS the outdrive came in contact with the swim platform so I had to grind the tab on the the end of the top cap

I have a Livorsi drive shower. It works good, I guess? It's hard to tell if they are working or not.

Dave I was looking in the new Livorsi catolog # 14 your drive shower is in there @ $199, also a twin tube type called multiport shower. They claim to reduce temps as much as 60 degrees. Looks like a must for next year.

I used to have the halo type but it was hard to get off when you have to remove the drive. I think I only paid about $125 for mine the one I have now.

If the paint on the top of the drive shows any signs of fading or chalking, it is getting hot. Hot is obviously no good, and a drive shower will help in this case. I would say that it is good insurance for higher HP applications. It certainly won't hurt.
Gary, it's a no brainer for you. Maybe I'll add to my list too.
