Pat yes I do like Merc. ( I grew up with every thing merc ), However if there is a new Y2K in my future, I will not rule out any other product on the market with a Proven Track Record. As long as I can get the motor/drive serviced at the shop I use. ( Warranty Work ). Hey Rick, as Pat said any imput on this set up ???? :D

I'll give you the staggered BB/ADS, but no mid cabin stuff, and there's no way my kids are riding if the front of any rig that goes over 40...:p

Hey G,
I'm quite sure that these engines are service all over the country; they are optional power on just about any inboard ski boat.
What I'm not sure of is if 2 of these hooked to ADS drives would give you enough to push a 30' Super over 100.
If you have a shop that does all your service and will continue to do so, you probably ask them what/whose custom power they can do warranty work on.
I’m talking small blocks because I think Rick can make them fit in a short stagger without loosing the back seat.

Pat, just think of the ROOSTER TAIL following the Y2K with twin ASD 's !!!!!!

PCM lists them at 930lbs with a trany.
Coupled to an ADS they are going to be less than I/Os.
Maybe you don't need to stagger them...:cool:

Here's my thread from a while ago...

Anyone know how the one that is currently out there is doing?
The customer happy?
Willing to sell? :drool: buy used and whipple! :D

Never heard anything from the onwer, Rick ???

The owner is very happy. Saw him at the Patchouge Race. Says the boat is running 84. I don't think he's selling it though.
