    Thanks! I am in the "play hard" group, but I love building weirdo motors for my little boat--it makes the winter months past easier.

    I would greatly appreciate any and all info on making these 45 cube OMC twins go!

    Here's a few of my present project motors:

    1. A 30 cube (Merc 350 twin) with homemade external reeds.

    2. A 65 hp triple adapted to my favorite, Mark 55 tower, and

    3. My 'regular' motor, an offset plugs 44 with a custom hood.

    Default 2bbls on stock 45

    2bbls on a stocker helped out.
    Lambertville 2000 I think.
    1" 2bls with #64 main jets.

    It was a fun ride

    I suspect that boat was running 100 mph at this race. He timed the start to meet the 70-75 mph C class boats at the starting clock and passed them like they were literally standing still. By the end of the race he had lapped the entire field and was looking at the roostertails of the stragglers the second time. If it had been a 4 lap race ... he probably would have passed half the field again.
    Since 1925, about 150 different racing outboards have been made.
