Looks like a pretty close copy of a Backwater frame. Especially the cav plate.

Thanks guys, the cav plate and prop came from backwater. I got my u joint from BogHog and most everything else came from Mcmaster-Carr. Shaft from a local shop.

The shop is called EMS (emergency machine service) Send me a PM if you want me to hook you up with my guy there. He is located in Atlanta but he will do the work for the right price.
