Howzit,

For my 2 x 80hp a reasonable R 2600, sounds like a no brainer.
Support SA manufacture, with good spares.

I've got 2 x 5o yammies on my explorer, I would still need the steering box & pipes, etc. Am i right?

Hi Bruce,

You would need helm (steering box) piping, some connectors? and link arms or steering arm.
pm nantes on above post, he can advise exact what you would need.
