Ya losing me here. Whats that got to do with V8 Johnson?

[AZMIDLYF]

Parker asked what lower unit was in that pic? You said since it was a J/Rude? Not a J/Rude in the pic...the John on the cowl is for a bible verse.

[PARKER RABE]

look at that lower unit on that hydro , that does not look like a mercury lower unit

[PARKER RABE]

mabye its a shadow or part of the boat im looking at.

Oh fer crying out loud. We been calling OMC JRudes, Johnny Rudes, Johnnys, Rudes,etc. Dude its a V8 JOHNSON MOTOR. I don't care what somewhat puts on the cowling..(and taking a second look, yer right and I know '3:16" also), but shoving religion is a thread about a gearcase?

[Robby321]

Pic again a V8..(hope they show or edit them if not)

Hey guys either way that is a Merc cowl!:p The lower unit Parker looks like an older speedmaster with the full skeg..... BUT then again I could be wrong!:confused: We need a racing Guru to log in. Gary

DAMN Gary! I noticed that too! I need to ask more the FB site and clear this up! Damn, I post a pic "riding the prop" and has turned into a bit of everything? I should have told Parker when asked "what L/U is that"?

Should have said ..."the one in the water"! (Damn gearheads) HA!

[PARKER RABE]

we need some more pics of this rig so i can see a beter shot of that lower unit.

[PARKER RABE]

looks like and old omc speedmaster they used to run on crossflows and stranglers , but i dont know how they would get it to bolt up to a hacked off mercury mid, that mid is super old like 70s

[PARKER RABE]

i think im looking at the back of the boat and not the actual lower unit.the picture is too blurry

[Stoker1]

Didn't Chad take that picture? I thought he was there.

[AZMIDLYF]

Think this the same case but with the skeg still on it?
