4 ltr cant be a racing engine if its a v6

Well --- How bout an X-12 with two 2 litre blocks??? Hey Jerry, great idea! You wouldn't have one laying around somewhere? That powrhead would make a great coffee table in a man cave!

Hey Jerry, great idea! You wouldn't have one laying around somewhere? That powrhead would make a great coffee table in a man cave!

Hi Bernie ---- Sorry I didn't respond to you back in the "Merc V6 history" thread. I think I was just too intent on getting my story out that I didn't want to be sidetracked. We must have met back in there somewhere. I certainly remember your name but am having trouble putting a face to it.
An X-12 would be hard to come by. Wish I had one. Only two were made and they were stored down in Fond Du Lac. I wonder what ever happened to them. I have a very early V6 block in my man cave. Maybe I should make a coffee table out of it!!

Quote from Fuji - my reply.421283
Got this in my '68 Checkmate - two tilt screws loosen up constantly. Loctited them now, will never get them out! Love patent drawings, that was pure art - and had to be done in ink!

421288 I remember back in the day Smiling Jack's had a deal, "buy two V6's at list price, get the third one free! There were guys from Wisconsin drove down there to get in on that action. Seems to me Jacks was also buying complete motors and taking them apart - selling the parts made more money than selling a complete engine and it was cheaper than buying stock parts from mother Mercury.

...Could tell you a story or two about Jack Bishop. But I won't. He was a truck driver by trade. By the way, the breaking down of sterndrive packages & outboards has been going on for decades here in Florida, and still exists today. Especially in the "for export" buyers, and sellers biz. Just one of the many reasons so many legitimate dealers can't compete & eventually fold, over the past 30 years or more.

Pretty sure that's Penske's boat with Mark Donahue piloting & Jerry Simison as throttle man. Their sponsor was Sunoco & Mark's number was 66. I sat in the cockpit of thst boat in Ft. Lauderdale.
