[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 274469, member: 3278"] I wouldn't even go there as just about everything you just mentioned about Merc and horsepower is simply not the case. By law they are only able to produce and cerfify an engine at rated horsepower plus or minus 10%............period! End of discussion. Manufacturers watch this like a hawk as well and will put an errant manufacturer on notice in a heartbeat. Every manufacturer out there will routinely check competition. Now, having said that..........years and years ago.........back when the Mercs were Green on top and for alot of years that was exactly what was happening and they sold a ton of engines that way. Those little engines are still sought after these days and are routinely run at antique outboard events all around the country. [/QUOTE]
