If they go in the boat in the thread by LESSONLEARNED the drives are either Arnesons or BPMs. I don't think any Merc drive can hold that power.

Number 6's

They're different big chiefs then most run and the cam is not very big considering the power.

Just meant symmetrical, don't seem to need as much cam when the heads flow 500cfm.

Dustin,
Impressive package, and also impressive for any engine that spins 7500 rpm.

However when comparing to turbo's and the power they are also capable of making from start to finish in the full rpm range............

Wouldn't reliability also be highly favored?
Just not sure how appealing maintaining a 7500 rpm rotating assembly is even for your go fast guys at the upper end of the food chain?
As we all know the faster you spin, the quicker its breaking down.

Turbo's will give you big power, acceleration, and reliability, and
also a lot more favorable rpm range.

Anyways just my thoughts, good luck with you continued development.
after all that's what makes better products.

Jon
