Go fast Merc!

[GoneFission]

Farley will love this one - I think this is a Tower-O-Power Merc from back in the day set up for going fast!  You don't see exhaust trumpets these days...

Hey John,
Long time no see.... Here is the scoop on that design. It's called a Quincy Looper. A combination MERC/Quincy race engine. Interesting partnership with Mercury back in the day.

This is weird - I see the image for a second and then it disappears. For that second, the engine looks bad@ssed. I heard that Photobucket is loosening their stance on "no free hosting". I have the photobucket fix "On". Maybe that's it?  I'll try disabling that addon.

Edit: Yup that was it - I'll have to see if all the photobucket pics here show up again now.
