Ah yes....the good old days...that is chicken soup for the soul right there.
I would like to have a brand new one of those.

225 Pro Max is a better motor. But for the time they were cool.

But a ProMax is 50lbs heavier.
I was just curious. I heard a story of a gentleman who ran 111 mph in an XTB. when I asked him how, he said Mod VP and prop. Impressive to say the least.
Thanks for the info gents.

My 96 Mercury brochure shows 350 lb for a 225 PM. I doubt it's 50 lb heavier than the Mod VP.
25:1 Oil ratio and only 7000 RPM?

I was scratching my head on that one too.
I thought they were 32:1 and turned closer to 8k?
