Default Bought engines today VV

These engines are going in my 320 to replace the 496's.
They are 2005 Factory Mercury 750HP Super Cat Racing Engines with 10 hrs from new. I am having the 12/1 ratio pistons and roller cams changed to 9.8/1 ratio to run pump gas. My bell housings off the 496's will work. We are looking for 6000 RPM and a little over 700 HP per side with the new pistons / cams. I think they will look trick and should be bullet proof.

Lot of money for tater launchers!!! But I bet they'll really launch them taters a country mile. You have some real big coconuts to put them in that 32 VV, qualifies you for the Bad MoFo of the year award. WTF happened to some nice little dependable blue motors???

through the hatch? hope your not a neat freak! that ****s meeeesssssy... all the carbon you see on your transom will now be all over the top of the boat (and the roof of the dock!) hard to beat for that trick look though!
