i doubt its a v-12, most boat makers use mercury and mercury doesn't make a v-12 only v-8's. there probably running two high performace 525 merc v-8s.
They're definitely in the 7-9K RPM range. There's nothing like that sound. They may be 540 BBC too. Those are becoming more popular for boats like that. Hard to say without seeing it for yourself.
I keep coming back to watch this video. It's in my favorites. What a rediculous fucking sound that boat is making. I can almost imagine how loud it really must have been. Man that's sweet.
Those did sould like V-12s V-8's are deeper sounding becuase the stroke is longer to make the same amount of cubic inches...and more power.

Just what we want to hear on a QUIET, restful afternoon at the lake.
Sounds like the Long Island Expressway at rush hour.

sweet sounding mercruiser big blocks,
V-12 scream, but a couple of V-8's are really something to listen too,
High lift cams and good injection and good headers make it possible,

NOT a V-12, why can't you gearheads tell this? Those were two V-8's!
planedrawer 3 years ago 14
That does sound more like a couple of V-8's.

yeah screaming V8's for sure... can't anyone tell the differences in engine sounds? a V12 sounds like a high-pitched inline 6.

I'd be willing to bet that boat had a pair of 502's in it, and not a V-12. Definitely sounds awesome though!!

Yep, probly right there mate. They're a popular lump to put in boats this big. Probably sitting on 7,500-8000 rpm. Thats a lot for a big block!
I think that to tell the difference, a little mechanical knowledge isn't enough, you need a bit of a musical ear as well.
