why doesn't anybody believe it when it's said that the T-4 was only an EFI, and only a tunnel boat motor?

Who has pictures of these powerheads?
Merc Cruiser I am sure no one is ???? the fact that the t4 was what it was/is......Maybe a 6 pack motor was used as a back up motor???? I have 3 of em......2 OS 1 T4.......I know what I see.....OK aaallll Can a #8 be run in both directions???? SSM cases are not happy unless turned the way they are ment to be.....Gear lash....front and rear loading of drive gears......My #8 is left..... the Morth shows R in the center......ether a Lh power head or... the gears were mad for RH use.... which is a whole ne w bag of worms on a limited use gear case....... Sorry stky is not around to tell.. us this.......
Merc did not use T4s on Offfys.....The offs were big starter.... non fingerported.....T4s were...I have a T4 with a shift slider......bracket.... so who is to say they didn't .......Sorry my pixs go slow as My wife is the Pix taker......
oh boy.... how about specs?
I don't know if Bob Hetzel does Internet, but I know he was the brainchild behind making props for the T-4 - told me a long time ago about how thick he had to keep the blade roots to keep blades on the hubs.
It worked. Very readily available. Dependable. Affordable. Proven. That's all.
...207 cubic inch V-6 "T-4" versus 2.5 litre Champ V-6...http://i44.tinypic.com/6sam9d.jpghttp://i39.tinypic.com/30aqf80.jpg
Had to take one apart....Bad brush spring.... went out back...old chevy starter...same spring. The Prestlite starter Broke the Tang that keeps the starter from spinning...... welded a good solid one on to fix it...... T4 uses the long 200 V6 starter.....and small F/w.....They milled the front half to get starter closer to crank C/L. The add that merc put out May ????? have a error.....gear ratio....1.65to1..... I think it was higher...
