Ilmor Transmission, ECU and Vee-hull Steering (correction: Tie bar) clevis:

More package photos.

just curious about the steering clevis, that drive appears to have integrated steering? What is meant by V hull clevis?

Nice looking hardware.

Remove the plate on the back of the drive and the tie bar mount bolts in. It is also an inspection port for the drive.

ahhh . . . now i get it . . . i'm a little slow this weekend . . . been sick (flu) :drool: :D


by the way when will these be avaliable?

What price level ???
 

The new Ilmor Indy drive seems like a really nice piece of engineering as most things they do are.

I would think the P-1 racing in Europe this year if Ilmor participates again will be a wondeful test of this drives strengths and possible weaknesses.

Would someone else confirm a posters price on a 700sci/NXT drive and engine from Mercury at $50-$55K, that sounds way to low from what I've seen previously. Has Mercury Racing dropped their prices??
The Ilmor 725/Indy drive at $75-$80K sounds more like where these packages have priced in the past.
Maybe an economy driven price war is about to take effect, that will be interesting!

Is it a twin downshaft like the 6?

I believe you are right on the Merc pricing Ray. A few years back (2006) a 600 XR package was listing in the 60s. That was just before the 700s came out. I've never seen the list prices on the 700 NXTs but I would think it would be much more than 50 - 55K.
