Neil and Group,
I have had some interest in the Marcotte PSRU and the contact has always been Ray Fiset. Ray had some serious illness and was out of action for a while. He recently sent an e-mail to all the people trying to get a Marcotte drive saying he was back in action. The drives seem to be built in batches of what they thing will be the hot seller. If they have what you want on the list you can get it right away. If you want something made to order it may take sone time. Consider a escrow account for the money. Ross who runs their drive on his RV-6 and RV-10 told me nervt to pre pay the full amount. He said, "Guy Marcotte seems to be an excellent engineer, but a terrible business man."
FWIW I like the layout of the drive nad they are now offering a shaft setup for a hyd prop governor.

Lynn and George, there is no splined shaft, but the pins can move inside the pucks.  There 6 pins total.  I don't have an e-mail address for Marcotte, but do have a phone and fax number, so will try and contact him tomorrow by fax, as English is his second language and having spent my life on the farm and in heavy industry, my hearing is shot and I can't understand him on the phone.  I haven't had a chance yet to check the end play.  JohnD
