"Speaking at a pre-launch briefing here in Miami, Mercury chief technology officer David Foulkes said the 350 and 400hp engines featured cold air induction, water cooled superchargers, upgraded power heads and new fuel injection systems.

The 350, which weighs in at 303kg in the 25 inch shaft variant, revs out to 6400 rpm"

when the verados were first sold in the UK, I was working the first public show at Southhampton , a man wanted to have alook under the top cowl,Keep in mind that Im 5ft 8ins on a good day, and the obms were on tall stands, the conversation went like this,
customer "can I look under the top cowl?"
me no sorry,
customer " why is it secret?"
me no its just Im a short arse they are so tall I cannot get the cowl of safely.
note he gave me a hand had a look and buggered of
