speedmaster
In the early 70's I rode in an 18 at the Donzi factory and it had a sbc and a Volvo speedmaster lower unit. I guess this was just prior to the TRS drive taking Volvo out of the equation for performance. It was fast (I think close to 80) and was going to be shipped to Italy. Assuming one had or could get a speedmaster. Are there any downsides (handling etc.)? Are props available? Are there different gear ratios? I need not ask about parts availability .
