Does anyone know if there is a drive shower that fits an older OMC 800, or is universal/modifyable to fit?

As long as we're hacking a thread :) ...... Is there any reason why I couldn't build my own drive shower?
I really want a plate-mounted electric trolling motor but the showers I've seen won't fit with any of the trolling motors I've seen.
Isn't it pretty straight forward? Couldn't I design a shower to fit?

I don't see why not. As long as you have the materials it's a very basic concept.

It's about as straight forward as it gets, just figure out any number of ways to spray cool water on the upper gear housing. they are about the simplest concept going, seen many many variations on them.

Don't be afraid to drill the hole. All will be OK, just try it, what no one has told you is that it can be mounted all over the place.as long as it picks up water..... and all will if below the bottom plate. If it hits the top of the drive anywhere it's cool. Relax, build your own..... 20.00 on tubing and a little welding experience and you're set!.....
