Default Drive shower recommendations

I went to put on a Halo drive shower this past weekend but it wouldn't fit with the wing plate on the drive for the Latham Hydraulic steering. It looks like I will need a top cap shower. The top cap showers all pretty much look the same but I was wondering if people recommend one over another?

I don't have a lot of experience with the top cap coolers but do know they concentrate the flow where the most heat is. If I was hunting one in that style I'd look to see if one is made that also reinforces the top cap. Top cap is a weak link.

I might be interested in the halo that doesn't fit. I'm looking for a match for one I have.

cdail, I was at Sun Country Marine (Phoenix) yesterday. They had 3 Imco drive showers for sale, I think the price was about $110 each. These are what Formula puts on their drives. Seems like a good price to me and I'm sure they'd ship it to you.
