    What model year would that be? Very cool old cowl indeed.

    83 V-King, 96 Mariner, ff block 2.5 w/a 28p chopper
    Ain't it great to have papa TRUMP back at the helm?

    LOL. That reminds me of when the Merc alien cowl came out and was NOT received well at all so the Merc rep told us to spread the word that it had 13%
    less drag coefficient rating and that meant it would be faster than the old cowl. He said it with a grin.

    What's the "F" on F 2.4 ?............. I've always heard that the Mariner colors absorb less sun rays than the Mercury black so your engine run cooler.....and can turn more RPM.....but I only run at night so the sun don't hurt lol.......but really all jokes aside what's the F stand for?

    How true!!
    I still do not like them....
    I’m an old style cowl guy because it keeps the air tight and rams it quickly to where it needs to go....

    I have an OG mariner f1 cowl but time has been pretty tough to it. Ditto on the alien cowls. Almost every one I've had has broke or split down the seam.

    This was from a folder of all Merc race motors from 1983. Looks the same except for the EFI below the F2.4. Just a guess but thinking that's newer than 83 as the only carb versions were from Merc or Mariner that year were the ModVP motors.
