I've driven that E Ticket with a pair of those mills. They DO NOT run on pump gas! I suppose they might if you back the timing way off. They do run nice and smooth with insane acceleration in that little boat.

Yes, they are SNORTING motors. They make plenty of power, that boat runs 160+. Schmidt builds a stout mill for sure. We'll see if the motors make it through the summer, the owner is afraid of hurting them so he's running conservatively.
