Now that is funny,

BTW Twin-Kyle

The 8.2 doesn't have anything to do with the 496, they went back to the older style motor.

Closer to the 502mpi's.

I could be wrong,,,,,,,,,,, but don't think so.

You are correct. The new motor is based off a 502 block. GM no longer produces the 496.

I did not realize they were building the P1 boats in NC. Interesting.

As for the 26 outlaw, I'll give them the benefit of the doubt and reserve passing judgement till they put out the finished product. Right now, I can't fathom what is going to make that graphic "cool

", but we will see. Good luck Baja!
