Yes ago I salvaged a very early one fro
Fla and believe it was an ‘85 and think I remember it being first yr.
Caught my attention as that was a yr earlier than introduction of the V-6 looper ‘86.
Also remember it having a non gear reduction starter compared to the reduction starters on everything else.
Was huge! Looked a Ford truck starter.
I'd rather be competitive w/junk I built in my garage than win w/stuff I bought.
I refuse to allow common sense to interfere w/my boat buying decisions.

The Evinrude/Johnson V8 3.6 liter looper was released to dealers in the late spring of 1985. At the same time as the 1.8 liter V4 looper. (Half a V8)
Yes, you are correct the V6 2.7 liter looper was released to dealers 1986. First powerhead built in Calhoun, Georgia.Last edited by lars strom; 11-22-2018 at 08:46 AM.
