    Interesting that you will come on the Evinrude forum looking for assistance all the while sh*tting on the G2 in another thread...And the reason you don't like the G2 is because a guy who never ran one left Evinrude.

    to answer your lower unit question yes it will bolt right up.

    To answer your other reply. Tharp could break an anvil. If you are on the Randall Tharp band wagon that is fine. Mercury didn't want him back The BRP Tournament support technician when above and beyond when he broke down on Guntersville and got him back on the water in less than 30 minutes. The issue that took out his lower unit was caused by a rigging issue that caused the failure. He did not blow up a G2 he had a motor shut down on him on Okeechobee event as did several other competitors due to a faulty fuel solenoid issue. He did not blow a G2 at the classic he had an intermittent fault that could be cleared via his on board display and once again was corrected by the Tournament support tech.

    As the technician that had the privilege of working with Randall while he worked for Evinrude and I still call him a friend, I can, and will set you straight, Randall never lost a G2 power head or gear case while he ran G2. Randall's decision to go to work for Yamaha, is as always, with the Elite anglers a business decision.

    And your other statement about how many Elite anglers run G2, the answer is four, there were five but Davy Hite retired to do on the water comentation for Bass from his G2 powered Phenoix .

    Mercury is a flagship sponsor of BASS. They have been for a long time, too.

    I gotta hand it to you - you sure do know how to make an impression....and not the right kind.

    I would suggest you trade that motor in and get one where you don't have to stink up our forum.
