i reckon inboards are the way to go, reliable,easy to tune and you can fit a blower.

Yeah i fought of that way but then you really need a bigger boat ie space weight etc. I quiet fancy a 500hp cosworth engine in a p21 cor that would go sum and sounds the tits and there light engines to compared to the v8 s

a small block chevy wouldn't take much more room up than the engine well,i think it would fit and carry the weight easily.

As far as the 225HO issue goes - AFAIK that came from a Johnrude salesman at the london boatshow earlier this year. What he actually said was that the 225HO has the same powerhead as the 250 standard, which on the spec sheet I saw stated 247hp. Hence the 22hp figure.
Whether it's true or not - who knows - could be all sales talk. Has anyone done a dyno comparision between the xr2, 200HO & 200xs?
