I know all the 2.5's were. I'm assuming the 3.0's were too

Thanks for the kind words Calvin,
The Chrome plating was applied to aluminum..The Nickasil as well as the newer Nicom Platings is also applied to Aluminum.

First promax that Mercury put out was a 200 and that was in late 93 which was a 94' model. I had one of the first one's, then Jay worked his majic on it.

How are the pro max engines?
Got a chance to pick up a real clean 2005 250 xs and wondered how it would perform on my 21' Skater, as compared to my '92 260 OS?
