I like what looks like coil on plug ignition. That would be nice to have on the LT5!

Love it!

Jerry, what you going to put yours in??

The BBC fits in the C4, remember BigDoggy? This engine is a 552 inch DOHC, TT Mercury produced engine.

Might need a power bulge hood for this engine in a C4. The 1650 requires 110octane race fuel, the 1350 does not. 7.8:1 compression on both.

These are Mercury Racing engines, 1 year limited on pleasure application, no warranty at all on the 1650 engine.

Length (in/mm)26.69/678 (from back of block)
Width (in/mm)34/864
Heiqht (in/mm) 29/737 (from crankshaft centerline)
Weight (lbs/kg) 1720/782

Warranty

1-year limited for recreational boating

Mercury lists the M8 drive as weighing 280 lbs, so that 9.0L DOHC engine is a heavy beast. 0-150mph in 13 seconds on the water is Miss Geico.
