Ive ordered a deep vee hot pipe from Don, Now I just have to what for it to arrive.

Bob, Im in the proses of building a SV43 and I have virtually the same set up, just dont have pipes for it at the moment. Was thinking of either a pair Zippkit stainless pipes or victory pipe from gizmo...
How do you find the WD200 steerable drives? are they the Lenkstrut?

Hi Wet ( sorry I dont know your name)
No these are not the lenkstruts if you look at the WD200 site these are the 2nd ones down on the drive his drive list, they are quite a bit larger than the lenkstruts ( i think you need lenks for the SV43 ).

the only think I have done to my drives is made 2 x stainless posts to raise the hight for the servo conections + i made a new adjustable tie bar across the drives from stainless steel and fitted floating rod ends, I never use anything Snap on on my boats.
I am useing a pair of Futaba BLS-157HV 7.4V servos in push pull configuration to steer the drives 37kg Each at 7.4V (massive overpower ) but im a safty guy they hold these drives rock solid.

full build pics of the apache build are on my facebook page ( Robert Wake ) - the avartar pic the guy with the long hair an tash - apache album.
Bob.
