    Just curious to what makes this rare? and i am not trying to be a smartass. Is it the CMI up grade? Because that would explain it to me it is a good deal Is there a warranty?

    No problem. You see most of these are usually set up for skiboats/inboard with transmission.
    They are a special build from Mercury Reman.
    Look up what they sell for on the web. I found from 11k to 13k. I sold mine for 7800.00. to me that's a good deal
    We sold it with a 6 month warranty.
    This is based on my experience.

    Ok, now I'm confused. Was there only one year that Merc built a 377HP Scorpion, 2001 sold into 2002? After 2002 it was no longer available? Thanks for any insights. Scott, was your 383 (someone got a nice deal) the next available option from Merc in 2003

    Scott,


    I am having trouble finding a clutch cone for my 1993 Classic 22. It is set up with an OMC King Cobra. When I shift it takes a while to engage in either forward or reverse. Not ideal when you are docking. Any suggestions?
