I just
purchased a Mercruiser alunimum anode kit (they don't sell zinc
anymore but this is supposed to work better).


Boat/US or West Marine has zincs. Zinc is always better than aluminum, no
matter what the greenies say. Zinc is further to the appropriate side of
the periodic chart of the atoms and government bureaucrats can't move it.

How's aluminum going to protect aluminum parts?? It's more noble than the
pot metal it's all made of, isn't it??
