    Ranger mercury repower !

    Hey all, looking to repower my 97 518vs. I've already upgraded from a 1997 175efi to a 2001 200efi. Now I'm looking to upgrade to a 3 liter engine....I'm looking to stay with mercury, to hopefully have ease of installation. The question is ....... what years of optimax/ pro xs are "plug and play" to.the existing wiring harness, etc. ??? Am I limited to pre XS motors ?

    Knowledgeable insight would he greatly appreciated. Thank you!

    Probably best to ask this question in the 3L Mercury forum, as they will have a definitive answer for you...
