    Reverse shifting good forward not so good

    The Merc area is the Mercruiser area. You had it in a section which would get very little views and being a shift issue it is a motor issue It should help with that, but going all the way to 6 o'clock position may be other issues. Try adjust first then we can see if there are still problems

    Murcruiser 5.0 mpi fuel pressure way down, and none after it sits

    Search for 861156A1 which is the old pump number, several will show up You may have a good pump it's just the Reg is where the problem is, need to test. The pump may be able to output 60 psi of more, but if the Reg bleeds off all pressure except 30 that's all you will see.

    New Z-Drive which anodes default installed

    Merc made the drive but the boat manufacture would decide what to use based on where it would be used. Merc probably installed Alu just because it's most often used unless manufacture requested something else https://performancemetals.com/pages/sacrificial-anodes-faqs

    New Z-Drive which anodes default installed

    The type of anodes depends on what type of water you boat in A Z drive being a cross over IMO with a inboard and outdrive I would use Aluminum
