Let me know what you think.
I could be wrong but I allwayss thought it was only the 500 carb engines.

might not be a bad idea to call Mercury.

You know I have to say I have always leaned towards Baja's for some reason and today I got a chance to see a 29 Outlaw next to a 30 Powerquest... I have to say I was stunned! As much as you would think they should be close or similar they aren't at all. We were really surprised at the difference in actual size. Now everyone here undoubtedly already knew this but for us is was very interesting to see.

So in short we say hello to all ye fellow Powerquest owners and can't wait to get out this spring.

Chad and Amy.
