I advise going with the OMC/BMC complete kit.It's installation literature will keep you apprised of any changes that may or may not apply to your particular engine.Not to mention ,better quality controlled parts.

On water pump kits and carb kits I agree totaly. OE is the way to fly.<br /><br />And dont change just the impeller. Get the complete kit.<br /><br />Good luck!

Yup, must agree here. Go with the OEM kit every time. The little things like included moly grease for the shaft splines and good instructions make it worth every cent!
