Mercury 1300/1350 Production on Track
Spoke with Fred Kiekhaefer of Mercury Racing this morning, http://www.boats.com/boat-content/20...ll-production/.
I've known him for a lot of years and I've never seen him more excited about a new product. Not even close.

Fred K. said they are really quiet. Not Verado, "Check the tachs to see if the engines are running," but really quiet for engines producing that kind of power.

"We like to do our testing out of the public eye"
Fancy way of saying the development was outsourced? (or some)????? Cool motors tho for sure, nice to see new development going on in a down economy

you're quick matt. edited my post a little more clearly just as you posted that.
Cool, to hear merc took it on themselves. They outsourced some of the verado that's why I asked. Surprised they didn't go back since the Verado worked out so well.
Either way like I said very cool motors and thumbs up to Merc.

Lesson one boost is good. Lesson two things fail with boost. Lesson three fix what breaks and your back to lesson 1

Nah, they just don't want their laundry aired out. These motors were built in-house, no outsourcing for Merc which I applaud.
