    v4/v6 are the same 4 over 4 down angle reeds, same block that goes in a down angle FT or any 2cyl omc, must have a weird inlet manifold/red plate to hold them straight in a straight in?
    same reed as a CCC maybe but what is that?

    That's cool.... I've seen in another thread somewhere that someone said you make short shaft mid-sections for Yamaha 70 hp.... If this is so, how would one go about getting one??

    My email is: PharmD2B31@yahoo.com

    Thanks!!

    I appreciate your reply or lack there of. Could you be more vague..... I am very aware that parts on these builds derive from factory parts.... Usually modified by someone. No worries, I've found someone who can modify a mid-section for me.

    all the mods are done in the power head, the only thing moded in the mid is the tuna. maybe be a bit more specific on what you are lookin to do.
