Because Cobra drives are garbage. The Alpha drive will make his boat more reliable and marketable. The cost of a VP-DPSX drive is astronomical.Chris, he did ask the question! I just followed his lead.

I have refered to us Volvo Penta mechanics as though we belong to the Maytag repairmen group.................
If I had to depend on Volvo's to put bread on the table, I'd weigh 80 lbs. Those welfare drives are what has kept most marine mechanics alive for the past 50 years. Talk about a bunch of garbage.
This thread has been posted in the Volvo Penta section of the forum..... not the OMC or Merc section.I have a 26ft boat with twin 4.3V6 GM engines. This is a cabin boat that I fish the salt chuck with. I just put new engines in and am thinking on new drives. What works best for this setup, duo prop or single and what legs.
Very true............. Every one can learn from other peoples experiences and the right way to do something in one persons opinion isn`t necessarily the only way it will work.
