Everyone has seen the drop on ModVP cowls... How about a clamshell? I've only ever seen one other pair.
The motor under this is an interesting creature too.
closer look at the decals, they're all one piece and printed on an aluminum textured backing.

Seems like after beating the piss out of them on the racecourse Merc quickly realized that clamshell cowlings suck in rough water, especially the ones with the 2.4 clicker type latches. One of the posts mentions the early modVP motors were modded 2.4 225s. That also jives with the powerhead I bought with that cowling.> Stainless steel Merc cowling plates - $110 shipped TYD - LINK <
