[QUOTE="Lil' Blue Rude, post: 341771, member: 4627"] It all depends on how the motor was ported. jets need torque, honestly don' think your going to make enough power to need a different size impeller. My omc 60/40 is ported still turning the 6 7/8. I would buy a stainless though. If the ports where raised up enough that torque suffered then the jet wouldn't be a good thing but if it still hit hard coming out of the hole then you should be fine. Shouldn't need a bigger impeller. Never seen a 60/40 merc turn enough rpm to need one unless it had a 50 shot of nitrous hooked up. Think you'll need a jack plate with less set back too. not for sure but think it would cause problems. [/QUOTE]
