do you have the Mercruiser special tap for the shift cable boss. Its a non tapered pipe thread, Mercruiser only. That brass is hard to drill out. Teh key to replacing the trim sensors without taking anything apart is a snap on swivel socket, loooong 1/4 extension, some one to pull the wires thru for you and(trade secret) super glue the two halves of the plastic pieces that stop up the hole in the transom plate. You have to work from one side(port works best), so you have to drape the wires over from the other side. If you super glue the two halves together, you can pull them both in place at the same time, use a small tie wrap to keep the retainer in place till you get a screw in it.


BTW, Ferm, you had a 6.2 Mercruiser at one time. I just pulled one down and I'm thinking about using the cam in my buggy. The numbers off the cam are 862562(merc number) and 10505L(cam manufacture). From what I've found, they say its a crane cam 104224. You know any different? I'm planning on running 1/6 ratio rockers with it
