    Rev 4 to something else

    The M does not have any cupping of the blades. The M+ has cupping. More cup means more bite forward but less bite reverse. The new verados have Gardin built in so need to watch both to get max performance

    Voltmeter vs alt output

    Need help identify part

    That is part of the exhaust shutter. The shutter slowed the water exiting the drive and this is what caused the water tube to melt. Your lucky it didn't overheat
