    Sportmaster mod?

    Titus responded to me he was out of the gearcase business. Any one else making the sportmaster faster? I was interested in his mod where he recones the the case.

    Everyone has their own opinions of course, but other than welding a good torque tab on the skeg and maybe trimming the leading edge I think putting a cone on top of a SportMaster is a waste of $$. I have had both and at least on a low 100 mph boat the only thing you need is the tab. And I would not want the one hole set up for a lake boat.

    What is he planning on doing if he no longer is working on lower units?

    Maybe you just don't understand what it means and what they do. Case is not totally symmetrical from mercury. This service makes it perfect and they coat it when they are done

    Titus did an excellent job on blueprinting the case! Did many for me.

    I'm also a skeptic. Id have to see testing stock vs modded same boat same day same conditions. NOt saying it doesnt work I would just have to see some evidence. Ive seen it too many times with labbed props where they sure look pretty and fast but aren't any faster than stock.
