2.5 midsection ?

[jbmastertech]

I have a 2.5 mid that has a tuner an the can removed , , an I seen that mercury offer's a block off plate to keep ext from going threw the lower unit , an Im going to drill out the mid to make it like a vp mod, , any thought on the pro's an con's of the block off plate ?

Get an offshore mid instead

Block off plate? Are you talking about a block off plate on an offshore to block off flow thru the rear snout?

I know of no such block off plate to remove exhaust flow thru the carrier.

FYI: I tested that when I was drag racing and it didn't work. The prop MUST have the exhaust bubbles to relieve the engine of the total prop load. A prop that has NO exhaust flow venting it cannot be turned easily even with a Drag motor..

Good luck,
Jay
