I have been reading over this website for a very long time now. I bought a ’76 25′ inboard Sea Vee and decided to do a ground up restoration with a cummins diesel based on the information avail on this website. With my lack of knowledge, the process has been slow but I would like to do it right the first time around. I am now in the stages of getting to the engine bed and gear mounting positions. There is very limited information on a twin disc and 6bt combo. I have a twin disc readily avail at an insanely good price but I notice that most people are going with the ZF220. I found that the gear will mount with SAE #3 housing fine but there may be small modifications to the starter ring? I haven’t seen any other mods needed. Just wondering if this is correct? What are the advantages besides price and weight diff in the two gears? Prop is an 18×21.
