New comlete lowers out of the budget this year. I need to add nose cone with low water pickup or transom mounted pickup. Eddies look good and are put on with epoxy. I found out the Imco's need to be welded. Don't want to take the internals out if not necessary. Really don't know about any of the rest, someone has to have gone down this road.

Yes, according to Imco the lower has to be disassembled and the cone welded on after the front of the case is ground flat, then of course you have to be careful not to overheat the case or it will warp. Quite a sales job, think I'll go another way!

Ask Eliminator ,i bet they have done a fer. the Spectras come with the nose come on them on the older one.
I think the bobs is out dated .
I had a buddy that had me sell some on this board , one looked like the Imco nose . Maybe they will chime in.
I would not use the merc foot! I would but the Imco, looks closer to a speed master.
really depends on what speed your at know.I would think about 90 it might help?
