You get an 84 Xfire and pull the motor, then put one of these in there. The 84s were 3200lbs wet, and now you throw in an aluminum block although the heads will reclaim some of the weight savings.

Re: Mercury Racing Set To Release 32-valve Head For LS Engine
Very interesting and BIG news for sure. The DOHC motorboat engine rises again.

Re: Mercury Racing Set To Release 32-valve Head For LS Engine
I have always wanted a reason to buy a C5 FRC, Looks like Mercury just gave a reason. 2004 Z06/ZR-1 Commemorative edition.
