Hey Tinker, I've got that silver century running but not tried on the water yet. It sounds good, everything works, just have to get a new fuel hose and replace that cracked impeller housing. I used the spare gearbox you gave me but I'm not sure if it's a silver century box. Same ratio and it fits but the external differences are: - Cooling inlet is 3 round holes instead of slots - Side of body is not stepped like original box - Face of box where prop goes is not recessed like original box. Can someone tell me what this gearbox is?
The original gearbox was clean inside but had extreme wear on the pinion teeth and the teeth ends burred over. The oil was clean so maybe it was run dry at some time and then oil put in but the damage was done. Had fun at Brits with my first Seagull racing and hope to go to Waitara. cobba.
