they've been out about a year, but I've never seen one yet. haven't heard of anyone owning one either... |
Well, I wonder how the Vazer is turning out?
I don't understand the point, they aren't that much shorter than the 130hp
3.0l that performs much better. They aren't cheap, they do have the closed cooling system that allows a heater, just like a car. Seems like an answer to a question nobody asked. tad "Tim" wrote in message ... http://www.marineenginedigest.com/sp...uiservazer.htm they've been out about a year, but I've never seen one yet. haven't heard of anyone owning one either... |

And it's rated at 100 hp. OK, for a 4 stroke inboard, that's really not much. But if the HP rating is the same as an automotive rating, that's a pretty good performance ratio. 100 HP from a 1600cc engine. But come to think of it. Yes, the 120145 HP 3.0L is a great bang for what it is.good torque for small package. Something does eem a bit wierd about this 1.6, though. |

Ooops... meant to send this, too....http://www.mercurymarine.com/_media/...comparison.pdf -- I didn't know there was one of those, Gene. but you say the specs are close? well if rated the same way. 100 hp compared to 140 hp? that's an obvious 40% difference. Of course the 1.6 is almost half the displacement of the 3.0 too. i wonder what products these are being installed? |

I have a pair of 1052cc 4 stroke inboards rated at 160hp each. 100hp from a 1600cc engine doesn't sound too good to me. --Mike "Tim" wrote in message ...
