Very impressive numbers ! your input is very much appreciated, thanks. I was under the impression that Terry was talking about the I-3 and hot spots but I could be mistaken.

Yea, Denny knows what I'm talking about. Usually when the V-4 or V-6 2-S engines fail (OMC, Yamaha, or Suzuki) the bottom cylinder, wrist pin, Rod or crank is involved. As it is at lowest cylinder in the group and has gathered the most heat going out the stack. The 3 cylinder 2-S in-line engines (OMC, Yamaha, Suzuki and Mercury) seem to have a better disipation of heat across the block than the V design blocks that dump the exhaust in the center. I understand when they designed the G-2 they looked long and hard at what worked well and used what looks like two in-line blocks. Take a peek inside the coweling of one if you can some time. They are even weirder looking on the inside than the outside, but beauitiful castings and craftsmanship. They got a cool little sticker on them too that you don't see much anymore - it says MADE IN USA, and I'm kinda' partial to this place.
