    Like to see fishing and F1 cranks. Did the later ex manifold F1 have it's own crank?

    Yeah that's the order of the crank in the pic above.

    Thing is the top to bottom V4 degree spacing. It's not 45° by looking at the crank pic and pic of the #1 TDC to #5 position. It looks by eye to be low 30° high 20°spacing. This would give a more equal arrival of both 1&5 for example acoustic blowdown pressure at the mid at high rpm. That's why I was wondering if they extended the bottom V4 exhaust further than the top into the mid , that would have provided more equal tune length to the top V4. I doubt I'll ever find one of the F1 motors around here and disassembled to have a look at the crank and ex manifold and mid.

    Johnson RS V6

    I did race for team Saffa/Molinari in Itay 1978 with a Johnson RS V6. This one was a 2 liter looper.
    Yes, that's me in the #29 Saffa/Molinari/Johnson RS. Idroscalo, Milan Sep.11 1978.
    I finished second just behind Renato in a Saffa/Molinari/Evinrude CCC V6

    OMC V6 Starter Location

    How did the location of the starter for OMC's V6 program end up between the carb banks? I assume that OMC had an advantage in doing this because OMC used a 90 degree block design versus Merc's 60 degree?

    The cowling contour lines of the Velden during this period had to be by far the best for styling. It's "camel back" look reminded me of a "knight's horse" profile in a chess set. Molinari's were functional but lacked some kind of flair for styling. Both Velden and Molinari race boats never evolved to a point where canopies were used in the 90's.
