their outboards are the same way, probably the way they design in house (probably the right way to do it).

How about the kidney and half a liver
I'm in- the liver regenerates!! (Thank God!) I have some old shoe leather you could have to pretend it is the other half..

I saw Sunkin there getting the details from Fred K. himself.........I expect a full report later.

Knowing how expensive 1075s are, anyone care to guess how much these will add to the bottom line? :ack2: I wish I were rich!
.
The CIG rep sitting in the boat said a pair of the 1350's w/M8 drives goes for $204,000

Is that right? if so the engine builders are in big trouble!

I spent about an hour with Fred going over literally every piece of what's inside of it. The short version- it's a quantum leap forward in every way. There wasn't a single thing I could take issue with.
List on one engine/trans/drive package is $204K.

so when they outsourced the componentry to Europe they could understand the drawings?
The good old boys Nascar engines have more euro parts in them now than local parts...I would have never thought that would happen
Yeah, they wouldn't be a third less than the 1075. Would be nice though.
If you calculate in dollar-per-horsepower and the savings on the significant extension of time-between-rebuilds, their price vs the 1075 is respectable.

Does it share any basic component design with the BBC?
Nevermind, Found the answer on another thread. :blush5:

Fred told me they estimate between 200 and 300 hours between refresh. So they grabbed the number in the middle and they call it 250.
The new ECU has 10 times the processing power of the one on the 1075. They collect enough data that they could potentially assemble an algorithm based on data gathered and stored during every second of usage that could give you a "time remaining" piece of data. So the guy that runs 60% all the time and once in a while bumps it to max sees different data that the guy that firewalls it at every opportunity. This isn't something he told me they're doing. This is something that could potentially be done in the future.

I was told there isn't a single off-the-shelf part in the engine. Obviously they looked at every piece of performance V-8 architecture in designing it so I'm going to guess there are some shared ideas from other platforms.

The cigarette was rigged with four tailpipes.
Me personally...
I would like to see just two pipes exiting the transom. The mercury display shows this rigging.
Also I would like the tailpipe lower and on each side of the drive if possible. Less soot on transom this way, cleaner look in my opinion, and quieter.
What do you guys think?
