Friends had a 17' boat with the 66 model 100 there were weekends when that motor hardly cooled off.---Had 3 gas tanks 6 US gallons.-------A fine piece of machinery.-------I had a motor once with the pointy electric shift.-----Installed the big round nosed 100 gearcase and speed went from 45 to 49 MPH with no other changes to the motor.-----Modified V-4 that ran at over 6000 RPM.-----I could not find or afford a higher pitch prop at the time.
