Nice little bracket, but I think he started it off a little too high. I wouldn't want to pay too much more than that for a small used bracket of that style.

I prefer the bracket with the platform on either isde myself.

might be just what grace needs, if he can figure out the shipping. that things gotta be much lighter than this SS one i got.

that's right Racer, I would rather have that over the stainless on a V20 the one's with a platform must weigh 2 tons more than this one.

I've got one similar to that made out of aluminum and it probably weighs in at around 70 lbs or so. Not really sure, but it's close.

It's like the GilI Drive. Just an older version. Nice addon brackets they have too. 8)

Thanks for posting this Skools. I sent a message to the guy to see how firm he is on not shipping. Racer, I'm still interested in yours as well. I'm waiting to hear what the boys here have to say about the deadrise on yours.

I posted a question about measurement for a bracket in the modifications section, but for some reason the modifications section hasn't been marked (showing "today" in bold) since Willy's last post to the section. Strange. ???

I gotta get a bracket! I got the engine and I have some vacation time to take, but I don't have a bracket to install. :'( Unfortunately, I don't have the know how either, but I hope to figure it out by trial and error. :-/

Per the seller:

THE BRACKET WILL ONLY WORK WELL WITH A O DEGREE AND UPTO 4 DEGREE MAX FOR IT TO PERFORM WELL

Oh well... :-/

I have a 26" setbacK Gil Bracket ( old style - no floatation) that's rated for 250 HP that is like new (I can post pics if your interested) Plus I live in Virginia so you can come pick it up and save the shipping.

i got these that i aint gonna use. i been busy, plus i tend to procrastinate, so i havent got a shipping quote yet. these are SS ant wiegh 3.25 TONS. i got a feelin that if grace gets 'em shippin gonna be bout 17 thousand dollars. i used a framing square and a speed square to figure deadrise at 20. wish i new another way so i could double check.tx
