    I will be installing a new engine this coming weekend and was wondering if there is a way to reset the hour gauge? Do I have to buy a new one? Its an older 89 style engine so I dont think it has an ECM or anything like that. Thanks

    What is this? Foil, fin? Is it the right one? Take it off?

    I've saw these before. I assume they help you get on plane faster and maybe get some more speed. But this one looks old and maybe too small. The drive is an OMC Cobra connected to a 5.7 OMC engine on a 25' Donzi. Should I take this off? Get a new one? Is this the right one for this drive...

    New to me 25ft with 350 big block and OMC Cobra outdrive!?!?!?!?!

    Hi all, I just bought a 25ft Donzi with a 350 big block and OMC Cobra out drive. The guy I bought it from had his original engine lock up on him, and the outdrive needed an overhaul. So he bought a remanned long block and found a better deal on a refurbed outdrive than the marina he was...
