Re: 115hp mercury(6 stack)

Hi,<br />IMHO there aren't any. I've run the L6s since<br />1963. I have a 1976 mod yr one that I'll<br />never get rid of. Maybe others have a different opinon, but thats mine.<br /><br />------------------<br />...have fun...corm<br /><br />cubic inches = power<br />power = speed<br />speed = FUN<br /><br />Email me if you need to.

These were great engines. The 115 was regarded as one of the best of this line. Same basic displacement engine made from 90-140 hp. Not real fuel efficient, old style external T/T pump stinks, hoses expensive, wiring corroded easily, but simple durable motors. I have '80 90hp that runs perfect still.
