How much power for either and how long have you been running this set up. Positives and Negatives with 800 or more power installed ?

If I recall Merc really only rates the ITS to 600 hp or maybe 700 hp - I forgot exactly what the hp was.

Merc ITS and or Latham Marine

I've got a 28' Nordic with ITS, going on 14 years old. I've gone through quite a few engines, from 600 to 950 HP. Never had a problem with the ITS, U joints and input shaft are original. I don't beat it hard in rough water but have made many 90+ mph runs with it.
