    I did see when "the Molinari Monster" was tested at Idroscalo, Italy.
    A two point race course, 2 miles long..

    How fast?? I do not know... but the sound was pretty good to.

    Question

    Lars

    Are you saying the 2 engines on the twin rig were 727 loopers and not CCC's?

    CCC was based on a production motor ... mostly a special front and lower unit.


    The 727 was a prototype that was never put in production
    Since 1925, about 150 different racing outboards have been made.

    It seems to be a 60degree looper race motor that very few were made and we havn't yet found anyone that has any data on them.
    They would be after the CCC
