One tooth over or under??? Those can't be original Merc gears...



One over (over drive) should work well on those torque monsters you drive! You could probably pull a skier with a 3 holer FEH! :D

Cheyney, I would be interested in a set of 1 overs. How much will they be?

originall merc gears not copies

1:1 Merc gears? That would be nice, but again are they merc gears and how much$$??

[David_L6]

Never mind. I know. He can't turn his motor up any higher. 14,000 is about the limit (sounds like it's turning that high! ;) )


Shawn, those are D size gears... You could put a D unit under one of your motors and it would last 3 forevers, but you'd have to use adapter plate(s) or have a tower built to match a 2 cyl powerhead to a D lower unit. It wouldn't be cheap.

My wallet can't handle that now lol :rolleyes:

My plan is to start off with the little 25ss/Q & 30h motors then later on eventually work up to D/44 motor...years later :D

[form-e one]

wow some people are thick...and cant read and think they know it all...the gears are original merc gears and not d-stock /44 gears...i dont have any prices yet we still need to test it under my rude to see if it survives ...NOT into selling junk..the gears are very very strong and a bit larger

[modifiedoutboard]

Sam,
Going to run mod 44 props on overdrive with the big 6?

[David_L6]

OK Cheney... original to WHICH Mercury lower unit?

mr. spokesman i have a feeling there's $$ in some t-shirts for your cause, i'll help market them for you!!! kev

[fasterboats]

Speedmaster gears???????

[sam]

Something tells me these will not be cheap to buy :( , but may be cheap to run! :)

Chrysler and McCulloch racing lower units both used one off ratios and fat teeth and easily out lasted Speedmasters.

Hey Dan, I know, how about you making the Hydroracer. Net t-shirts and on the back of a select few have "our" other logo????

[David_L6]

Cheney,

When are we going to get to see some pictures of this lower unit?

Will it have a water pump?
