Be careful. Had I known the gigantic pain in @$$ this would end up being, I never would have started. I now have a brand new FAE in the Garage and I don't know if I am going to install it (again.)
What you don't know.
1. Its a pain in the D!ck to get the old exhaust off.
2. 3m 5200 is the most messiest Stuff invented by man. It will get everywhere. Gloves and masking tape are a must.
3. Your boat may still leak.
4. FAE does not use the factory indexed 4 holes. so you need to drill 3 new holes that are close to the old holes in the transom. This is moronic beyond explanation.
5. SC uses the thinnest transoms in the industry. ( or so I am told ) At 1" thick I believe it. this causes flexing issues with the exhaust. = failures.
6. this is a 2 person job.
Finally, you need to trust that the newer improved version is not going to break like the older ones did. Larry assues me it won't.2019 MAX
