Thanks Svence, those are some good numbers there. I took inventory, I already have three complete trim units on three different midsections, one is a leaker (the old 2.4L 200 carb I took off the 20v), one the motor doesn't work (the driveshaft housing is ventilated), and one is mint (like new 20" from a 225 Mariner Magnum 2.5L). I figured the 3.0L midsction used a different trim unit than the old 2.5L Mercs. While the clamps are a little different the trim units are not. Live and learn. I like the idea of NEW Mercury stuff at my dealers cost. But I see now I just need a replacement motor, a few bolts and o-rings and I will have this one back together. I can't bring myself to take apart the 20" mid that is complete like new, I am still contemplating using it on my flats boat.
