The foil I bought is a Stingray. It's just one of their first. It's the same as the Standard black model. I have had it on for a couple hundred hours with no affect on the leg that has shown up. To get a bigger wake I tilt up slightly. With it on I can keep the speed constant when not on plane with the leg tilted a bit. Without it I could not keep a consistent speed between idle and plane. My Grew was on full plane at 2700 RPM with a 21 pitch prop.
You will probably have to adjust the steering trim on the back of the drive a bit after the installation.
It is pushing up with (my guess) a couple hundred pounds of force so make sure you check for leaks around the seal at the leg/transom. I never had a problem. (Well I did there once but that was a couple of years before the whale tail went on)
(Anyway that's another story and resembled the Titanic as seen from a dock)
