This the new engine from Mercury Racing. Tts a 557 that is NOT built by GM. 1350hp on 91 octane. A differnt version will feature 1100hp on 89 octane.

Dyno test, pretty cool IMO.

2 of them in this boat and it goes 175mph at 6700rpm.

Sea trials(over $400,000 worth of engines/drives)

I though some of you may find that interesting. these engines are only months old.

I wonder if the chain guide material can be trimmed to fit our chain guides?
