    Question Counter rotating power head question * 2.4 bp merc*

    Have a question regarding a 2.4 Bridgeport efi powerhead that is counter rotating. Is it possible to switch it back to right hand rotation (if so how) or is the only thing to do get a counter rotating lower unit. Any info is appreciated

    I always thought the lower unit is what made it counter rotating. I might learn something new today.

    I thought that was the case aswell but after reading into it a little more there are actually counter rotating power heads that are used in F1 applications. The one I’m looking at came off of a F1 boat & owner says it is left hand rotation at the flywheel
