    ok so just curios on is there anything i need to grease on these engines ever? i have qsc8.3l 600hp?
    if so any particular type of grease?
    also i have ZF transmissions. i notice there is a small filter on them? is there any videos on changing the oil for these on where to drain and how to fill and changing that filter?

    zincs, i need to order from tony, what sizes are they? i found two websites giving me different size specs for zincs

    and should i grease any of my hydraulic steering rams or cylinder in stern of boat?

    Chris, learn to use the search function on the sbmar main site, Corey puts hours and hours into making the site what it is today. A simple search term of “qsc zinc” finds you the two attached images for the QSC zincs

    As to the gear, I asked for “exact model”…. you don’t go to the parts counter and tell them you need an oil filter for a Chevy… we are all here to help but please help us help you.

    Sure you can lube any cable ends/linkages/etc that look dry but not something that requires too much attention unless things are allowed to get ugly.

    As to the tranny – what exact model gear?

    As to the zincs – what exact engine?
