Ran across this in my "old stuff" and thought some of you would like to see this. While working at Evinrude in the late 60's and early 70's a X-115 or one of these would show up in the plant for all of us to see.

The other side
Very cool!
If you email me a high resolution scan (400dpi or greater) I can clean up the fold marks and make it look almost original.
Since 1925, about 150 different racing outboards have been made.
I have a much better one, no folds and in color.I'll look for it tonight.
That blunt 1:1 would blow out and set you sideways. I made an epoxy nose cone for mine.
Was good for well over 100 that way.
Counter rotator option....
....was nice because you could use the merc props, a little better and more of a selection.
Here is the plate that is needed to switch the input and output shafts.
I always wondered how that was done! Thanks!

I raced one of these fabulous engines in the early 70's, had know idea this counter plate was available, wish I had, had to borrow left hand props and use them to cast new ones in bronze, had a trunk load of Merc props.
