Re: Powered by Lamborghini
Thats an interesting piece of writing, never knew they put those motors in boats, i bet they sounded awesome. One thing I did read once is that the Lamborghini co. originally started by making farm machinery. Then when the war started there was such a demand for steel and other raw materials that it was no longer profitable for them to build farm tractors and thats when they started building cars.....at least thats what i remember for some reason. If i am wrong please corrrect me. - Andrew

Re: Powered by Lamborghini
A friend of mine as ran them for years in his pleasure boat. Good Luck trying to get them rebuilt here in the U.S. They scream. I believe Don Johnson had a set. I also know that Mercury Racing did alot of testing of them in the late 80's and early 90's.
