I believe the m8's are shorter...that would drop the engines down lower....perhaps a better fit for those huge engines, not to mention a lower CG. M8's are rated stronger than the 6's. A durability plus.

More than that..... I thought I had some pictures of Carl's boat but none that are worth posting. I'm sure Dan has some to post. |
I'm sorry but I'm more impressed with what they did back in the day with modifying off the shelf parts then what they can build today. That motor is a total one off (maybe they built a couple) and you wont be picking up parts at the local GM dealer. I mean it's nice but probably cost more then my house.

Im sure it will all work out great. |
Here is a thread that I started 2 years about about the OL. Has pictures of the motors and the boat from the first year it was at Boyne.
