The outdrive seals needed servicing this year (milky oil) and we asked mechanic #3 to count the gear teeth. End of story!

Those mechanics are a bunch of LOSERS.

"The reason is, I own a 3.0 omc in a 17 foot boat, and there aint no way in hell it would plane out with a 19 pich prop."<br /><br />I disagree...I have an 18' Sea Ray with the 3.0L Mercruiser and a 14.5 x 19 prop on thee and she planes out rather swiftly for a 3.0L John what is the weight of your Four Winns? That seem awefully slow to plane? I am just curious

I agree. I have a 16' 4winns with only a 2.5L (120hp) with a 19" prop and I get up to 38 mph and about 4400 rpms. maybe the other guy has a hull full of water.
