Daddy Likey!
You need to get a nice 347c.i. fuel injected stroker motor in a boat. FORD speed shops all over the country are starting to develop these torquey motors. I would think it wouldn't take much to set them up for marine use.

Now we are talking! There must be lots of people like you out there that are into these 302, 327 and 347 stroker motors as well as the guys that are into the 351 and 392 stroker motors.
Lets here from some of them!

Masi 242,
I know what you are saying but true Ford lovers are immune to such comments. Come on guys, I need more Ford people to respond wth some good opinions. No more jokes please! (I should have known this would happen if I mentioned FORD to a bunch of boaters)

PS I will be very objective if I write the article, no Ford jokes I promise!

What a coincidence!! Last night I saw a commercial from Toyota about a 295hp V-6....and I thought why not in a boat???? very small v-6, you could mount 3 of them in a BB engine bay!! Or even couple them together in a common drive system ( see HOT BOAT) coupling is being tested right now. So, yes Dennis, it would be interesting to see small block FORDS in a boat, they can make considerable power in a small package and lots of blocks & parts available cheap. Merc has too much control of the marine market & keeps prices high artifically. They do need competion!!
