    That was a rush job to fill a gap in the motor line up – a souped up Gale (Elto) 12 horse powerhead on a Johnson QD lower unit. We were looking for something to compete with Mercury’s Super Ten and that was NOT it. We put the powerhead on a Lightfour lower unit and found my reworked Lightfour was faster. I had trouble with the rubber motor mounts twisting and drilled them for an additional screw. The latch for the fuel connector should be on top. As it is , it allows the connector to pull away at the top and leaks when worn.
