Ilmor 710
By a show of hands................
How many people do we have out there running either the 625 or the 710? Looking at a boat with 710 power and just curious to find out what opinions are out there... Looking for any information, good or bad, based on your personal experience. Thanx |

Nascat................
Thanx for taking some time out to chat. Very informitive, good info. Thanx |
I WAS JUST 5-MINS ago on the phone with a buddie and we were talking about just that. If I were to build a new boat I would be going Ilmore just for the fact you can get 600 to 700 hp without a blower and they are so clean looking. Now if they could just get that new drive going I think they could give Merc something to worry about.

You nailed it, same HP, lighter pkg & equal or better fuel economy w/o a blower. The area Ilmor really shines is Customer Service. PS- ask & you shall receive, an Ilmor drive is in the works, look for it late this year. |

From the sounds of things, there may be a drive in the works, we'll see. From the people I've talked to, I guess you can't go wrong from a customer service standpoint. They stand behind their product, almost to a fault. |
625
Dtto on the help Nascat.
Thanks for your help and time. I called Ilmor and the were very helpful. When they get a drive it will really be neat. John |
If they pull the drive off..... It could really change the opionion of some die hard Merc guys.
I know of a few Merc guys that would seriously think about changing. |
GB Performance Marine's demo Revenger RIB 30 has the 625 in front of an IMCO Xtreme Advantage gimbal and drive and the package really works well. It's a very clean install and from what I've heard Illmor has bent over backwards with their customer service.
