Can any of you Merc experts narrow it down to a year? Also the HP? Thank you in advance. Appreciate the help. Attachments: Check this box to be notified of replies to this topic.

Ask him to check and see what 'name' is cast onto the starboard side of the block.
I think one will be 'COMET' and one will be 'LIGHTNING', but I'm not sure since I just went out and checked what I believe is a 9.8 and it has Lightning cast onto the block, but has Comet above it in white paint stamp or decal??
Real helpful aren't I. Gag
