    the awnser to cbailey about warranty will not void your powerhead warranty just your lower unit warranty what happens is when your lower unit goes most of the time mercury just takes your old one back and gives you a new one its easier then the dealer ordering new guts for it and changing them out and thats where the problem is mercury doesnt want a lower unit back with holes drilled in it has to remain stock kinda like a new vehicle you start messing with the engine and modifying stuff on it voids your warranty the safe bet is always wait until your warranty runs out then do whatever you want but i must say very sharp product nicely made if my warranty was out i would definetly buy one still have four more years left but great product

    the dealer close to home just replaces short block for warranty work. they havent been rebuilding powerheads in some time according to them. the core charge for a 250proxs was $200 to mercury if old short block wasnt sent back to mercury. i wonder if the lower unit needs replaced, and they didnt want the lower because of the foil mounting holes, you could pay the core charge. if so, wonder what that core charge would be? anyone have experience with this?

    i looked in your profile but didnt see your name. if you are the same guy that ordered an aluminum foil with logos, tracking shows it was delivered yesterday and left at front door/porch. let me know, thanks. alot of folks place orders via email but dont give me their user name so not always will i know who is who on here.

    Shawn, I am not Chris, but I can answer that question. Better holeshot, lower speeds while staying on top with out bouncing, protection from slung blades if it ever happens, etc. Pretty much all of the go fast guys; Stroker, Bullet , Gambler, etc. are running them , and there is a reason.....................they work. You would see the same benefits on your boat and engine also brother.............................RR

    How does this work crossing wake board boat wakes and the like? I have a shorter boat (188) and wonder if it would make it easier to spear? Looks sweet btw!

    Is it a simple 6 bolt installation or am I missing something as I can barely use a screwdriver. Is this something a non mechanic can install ??? I am preparing to take delivery of Ranger Z 518 with 150 Merc Pro X S, two power pole Blades and two heavy fisherman turning a 23" Tempest Plus. I am concerned about hole shot and this foil might be helpful . Any opinions.
