The 850hp class 1 motor has been around for a while. Nothing new

As phragle stated I think the lower octane requirement is more for ease of refueling on the water, not to save pennies per gallon. If I were in the market for/could afford one or two of these the fuel requirement would have no effect for me because I trailer everywhere and I only fill up with 91 ethonal free.

These are the twin turbo motors minus the turbo, not the class 1 package. They are 9 litre (550+ci) with a full 2 yr pleasure warranty. Mercury reports that they should last 450hrs between rebuilds. Big money motors, but they beat the heck out of the blower and turbos for life expectancy! Standard drive is a #6.
