In what year was this? Was the Burgess blue by any chance?

81/82 solid white tunnel.Was rebuilt by a pair of brothers, from Chippawa lake MI.That motor just kept stringing out forever.They liked to run a mile and a half, or two miles,there top end number just kept ticking higher, the farther we would run.

Does anyone know how many of these "Jewels" were made? Thanks Gary

Does anyone have a picture of the 3cyl OMC with the same style cowling (air vents up the middle) as the strangler? I've tried looking around but I can't find anything.

The really cool picture of those engines is with the cowl off. The Super Strangler as well as the Johnson version, the StingerGP were 8 barrels. The engines were awesome looking from the front at all those carb throats.

What year were these made?

**JWTjr.** · 11-06-2013, 11:35 AM

What year or years were the Strangler & V4 Stinger built? (NOT GP or Super)

Wow that right up my alley. Would love to run something like that on my boat. What kind of power did they make and any idea on weight?

Really? You have a motor pushing 170hp and you want one of those?....... They were 75hp and great running engines, but a little short of what you have!

The Johnson stinger back then was a 4 BBL. version . The model was a KC13R Built in the early 70's. I had one. It also had a 1to1 gearcase. Before that i had a 1968 Evinrude X-115.
