LT5 LIVES ON!!
The LT5 is not forgotten by Mercury Marine. Using the knowledge & experience gained during development & production of the LT5, Mercury now offers a modern version of the LT5 concept for automotive use. Mercury makes no bones about it...... The new automotive 4 cam 32 valve (a/k/a QC4V) engine is descended from the LT5!

Fond Du Lac, WI. Just a nice 180mi ride from Chicago. Maybe MM would be interested in a Heritage Day with the car that started it for them? Anybody know someone at MM?

That was my thought. If they attribute their Performance line to the LT-5, maybe that would be a cool promotional thing for them. Sort of a homecoming thing. It would be neat trip we could do similar to what they did in Stillwater. Any thoughts? |
