This comes off the pertronix post. Why is it that boat manufactures make new boat owners pay top dollor of old school technology when it comes to inboard gas engines?? It amazes me that the current line of outboard motors make the current line of inboards look like model T's.

this is the current line up for Crusader marine. JC this 5.7 is an LT1 based motor. GM hasn't put that in a car for decades. Why not use the cureent GM or Ford engine line-up? Don't give me cost. For example...here is the current Sea-Ray line up. This 2010 205 Sport is using engine tech from the 90's. It's friggin carberated and cost $42,000.

$42,000 for 20+ year old technology......
