Well, I got tired of searching for a Johnson/ Evinrude cowling, and the AMPS cowlings are just to expensive to purchase and pull a mold from, so I just decided to spend 30 minutes or so to give making one a try, and I think it will work. I spoke to Mike Mcknight last night, and he mentioned he has Evinrude and Johnson decals, so maybe he will have what I need and we can size it to fit. This one is ment for my 30-33.5" tunnels and if this works out, and I can make a nice looking cowl, I will end up making one for my 35-40" tunnels and probably one for the gas tunnel. I suspect the FE guys would be all this appeals to as cowlings on nitro would be a pain. It will be fiberglass. I plan on an FE gas size tunnel build for myself soon, so I will want one for that! I know its not perfect to scale, but it will work. I just got in my first ever gallon of Duratec surfacing primer, and cannot wait to use some it on this!!! Who knows, maybe a fiberglass PX/NX300 is next.....
