New O/B motor .....

An outboard with the rumble of a I/O...hmmmm...But really there can't be much of a weight savings being an autmotive V8 engine, even if it is an all alumimum block. Hope whatever transom they put those monters on are really beefy!
 
I would think the tourque of that would rip it right off the transom
I've ripped motor mounts out of a car with a 300hp 350, no where near the torque of that beast (I should mention I was coasting forward, reving the engine and threw it into reverse - just because)
