    Got some good sponsors here that sell parts. Don's operation comes to mind for starters.

    Although this is not a direct answer to your question, from my own personal experience with a bass boat with a high performance motor, I will highly recommend a U-flex system over a Seastar system. I'm sure Don can help you with either and will have a recommendation of his own for you.

    Very similar to that. I personally prefer a Teleflex HELM, and the U-Flex design (Mercury Branded) cylinder. That way you get the best of both worlds.
