HEY GUYS HOPE YOU CAN HELP, I NEED TO REPLACE THE EXTERNAL RUDDER HOUSINGS ON MY 67 28 ALL V-DRIVE DONZIS I BELIEVE ARE THE SAME AT LEAST THEY ARE ON MY OTHER 2. I DON,T HAVE ANY IDEA WHO THE MFG. WAS AND DON'T KNOW OF ANY CURRENT CASTING MFGS FOR THIS TYPE OF HOUSING. I DON,T BELIEVE IT IS GOING TO BE EASY TO CAST NEW ONES THE WAY IT LOOKS IT WAS A 2 PART CASTING. ANY THOUGHTS? I ALREADY FILLED THE AREA IN THE TRANSOM SO THEY DON,T HAVE TO BE IDENTICLE. THANKS JOHN
