Who would have thought a Merc MR was really the "baby" Mercury Racing drive???

In keeping with the spirit of this beauty, I know is sounds stupid but we once had a customer that honestly thought a SS braid hose kit on a pair of 454/420's gave him more power over stock - yes they are out there - LOL

i went with the braided hose kit too, i pick up 11 mph, but i also speed waxed the hull that weekend so not sure how much mile per hour i pick up off the hoses vs the speed wax...rm

The turbos were actually a kit. There was a formula on craigslist that had the same turbo setup on twin chevys. I guess the turbos just sit in place of risers on the log manifolds. Pretty slick.

Hate to tell you but that's not even a Merc MR drive. More like an R drive. The MR was really an Alpha but the R was the old drive that shot the pinion through the gearcase in a hard acceleration.

That monster looks dangerous. Right down to old busted up stainless steel fishing boat propeller.
