Mercury 700 less $ than 600??
talked to a couple of manufacturer OEM's today and they both said Mercury is currently pushing the 700's and have them priced lower than the 600 engine. why are they pushing the 700 so much?

I would guess that they are going to do away with the 600SCI again because it is not much of an upgrade over the 525EFI in true horse power and speed. The 700SCI also probably cost as much to manufacture as the 600SCI. It probably doesn’t make as much business sense from a profit stand point for Mercury to sell both. The 700SCI is a nice upgrade over the 525EFI

But I thought the 700 is only available WITH the NXT drive.
I thought you could buy the 600 as just a powerplant without a drive. Didn't have to buy it with a drive.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.
What is the 700 going for - with and without drive - if it's available either way?
