The cowling did look white

Yes, Greg Jacobson from SeaWay Marine has been trying to redevelop the OMC program back into F1. Mike Schubert from Texas has been his driver. The rig looks great and runs well up until the final where they are still having issues with pistons. The OMC did win the 2nd qualifying heat that is in the video.

Wow that's a name from the past, I remember when Greg ran Sport E back in the 80's

[Greg Jacobsen]

That is our Johnson 3 liter EFI. After two years of hard work the motor now is running perfect. Qualified fourth and won the second heat, as you can see from the video. Started fourth in the final and was running in that position when we lost a prop blade. It was not a motor or "Piston" problem - we believe those issues are behind us.

Hey Greg,

Thanks for sharing keep us posted on the progress looks great! I assume these are all OMC parts combined with after market... ?

[Greg Jacobsen]

Stock OMC Crank, Rods, Pistons Bearings etc... Custom Billet Heads (Sea-Way), Autronic or Motec EFI & Ignition system - we make the entire front end. Currently have eight identical engines race ready.

[LIQUIDNIRVANA]
