Only a very few independents will be able to pull this off.

Teague is just the distributor for this tranny. Velvet drive built it for Merc. It is the same tranny that goes with the Merc 1350.
They are also lighter than the Bam and Hubers do to having Aluminum cases.
Very nice pieces, shift is a little more solid feeling than the others also. I have been running these since last yr. What little I boated that is last yr.

Who does the actual certification? The state of California, and independent agency, or the engine builder?

These guys are nasty strict- to the point that we cant even buy regular fuel cans anymore- they all need big brother caps et all.

It's nice that it is rated for 2500 hp, but it is still only a single speed trans, what is needed is a multiple speed unit, and until then all you are going have to chose from is proping to small and being able to get up on plane and then bouncing of the rev limiter, or proping it for top end and barely being able to get on plane with passangers and a decent amount of fuel, until one is avilable in masses those six figure powerplants will never see there true potential.

Just an FYI, CARB is a major PITA but keep in mind their standards (in one form or another) often go nationwide a short while after being implimented in cali.
Speaking of calibration work, be great to know who did the work - my $ is on Whipple but again just a guess.
