IMCO Lower question

[MattBMiller]

Do the IMCO lowers have a port for the speedo pitot to connect? I'd like to still have my water pressure speedometer functional along with my GPS if possible, but need to get a shorter lower. Hopefully I don't have to add an external pickup.

They haven't in the past.

Didn't think so. I guess I could just swap my other Speedo out to a GPS as well.

No Matt, there is no provision for the speedo. That port on the lower is used to supply water to the upper on the Imco SC drive.. If you hooked your speedo to it.. it would show you are going real fast, I believe..

I modified mine to use the stock spedo.
I plugged the hole that goes into the low water pickup section.
I then drilled and installed a pitot tube.
I used a cut away to see where to drill.
Works great.
