Neat but seems overly complicated for the sake of being different. Also the engines would not be 7.0l if they use a ls9 rotating assembly.

Seems like innovation to me! About time we see some more tech.

Well heck its something a whole lot different. Not A merc racing engine or Bravo outdrives nor a Cig nor a Fountain nor a DCB or Skater that we hear about all the time. I like different and the sportboat world needs some new good news. Just saying

awesome engineering! something quite lacking in the marine industry.......great job to all involved ........ hey mercury u reading ?

By letting the transmissions compensate for what probably is a narrow powerband instead of just going f.i. they also have a nice clean easy to service engine compartment there .

Weismann has been doing the multi-gear transmissions for awhile haven't they?

I wont be on the level of these guys but I just got my all alum 5.7l ls1 off the dyno here at work did 409hp with very conservative AFR and BSFC. this will be going thru a bravo drive that will be in a pontoon. :) :)

These motors a cheap to build, and weigh almost 400 pounds less then a dress BBC. For me that was the determine factor.

Thanks, Good read!

would love to have been a fly on the wall through the development of the Quickshift and all its iterations, that is some fascinating stuff. It is great to see a family with such a long innovative history, love poking through their website.
