The 'C' indicates extra cup, specifically made for pontoon boats (ideal for a bigfoot). Don't know about the 'l'.

The genuine bigfoot props have a beefier rubber hub but the standard prop will fit and work.

Re: bigfoot prop help will this fit

If you are certain you have a big foot lower unit, then the prop will work. Standard (non-big foot) Merc 40/50/60 HP lower units have a 13 spline shaft while the big foot lower unit is the same as the 75 & 90 HP motors which have 15 spline shafts. The standard gear ratio is 1.83:1 and the Big Foot is 2.33:1. Therefore standard 40/50/60 HP and big foot props are not interchangable. They are actually much different diameter as well. More information than you probably need but this is common question.
