Description
The Bigfoot nose cone is our most performance oriented unit, with the pickup holes only on the bottom of the bullet. This allows the motor to be raised extremely high and still maintaining water pressure. For most V6, or raced units we recommend our Dual hose version of this cone. If you need a recommendation for which style of nose cone is right for you, please give us a call or email.
If you are using a smaller motor or the Mercury Inline gear case, please choose the ‘inline’ option, it is a shorter unit. Rule of thumb is any engines 90 hp or smaller need the inline kit. If you are smaller than 60hp, please call first, as the cone will require modification to work, and you might perfer to send in for factory installation.

High Water Flow Capacity
Allow surface Piercing props (choppers, cleaver style) to be run at maximum height for top speed and all out performance, while maintaining proper cooling to engine.
Shallow Water Access
Travel and fish waters, until now, were unable to be reaches with outboard motors having standard (side water pick-up) gear cases.
