Thanks to Dwayne for the nice parts to convert my steering over to a JG style steering. The parts that I got from Dwayne are top notch. Here a couple of pics.

Why did you convert the steering to the JG style?

Thats what i was told. Its a very nice piece. I just mocked up the install. Im going to take it apart and get it powdercoated white. My next purchase, after new heads, will be on of your diverters and nozzle extensions.

Thats a good question. I still have not decided why i did it. Cost me a couple hundred dollars to do it and dont know i did it. Actually, i saw texasjets boat in houston the other day which was converted by Dwayne at HTP and thought it looked good. Im soon to buy a hyd diverter and snoot. The cables will end up being so long with the snoot that im sure they will drag in the water a little with e style cables. Thats the main reason i moved it to the top left. Im planning on using an American Turbine nozzle extension and diverter and they only make them for JG style steering.

Makes sense.
Have you tried out the E shoe and ride plate from HTP yet?
I'm curious as to your results since I'm considering adding that to me E pump.

Must be nice. I would think you would have been given other options knowing what your objectives are and spent your money wisely instead of foolishly.

Why don't you read the rest of my answer instead of just quoting part of what i said. The part you quoted was obviously a joke.
You seam to have issues with people who actually have money to spend on their boats.
