Nice outboard website.

In looking back I guess I dd get a little done this summer. The engine is on a test stand. I have a new short block in which I installed straight-cut cam gears in it which should make it whine like it was supercharged, but the straight cut gears have an adjustable timing hub and somehow I got them retarded by about a tooth (no timing marks on the gears) so it has to come apart to correct. On other business I put together a 2.75 and a 3.0 rear gearsets. My thinking here is that with a relatively mild motor (less than 300 HP)and a C4 trans with an auxilliary cooler I will be able to run in high on long tracks like at Indy and use 2nd (1.46:1 ratio, I think) on 1/4 mile and 5/8 mile tracks with an effective final gear ratio around 4.5:1 and not have to zing the motor too hard.
