    200 power head on 175

    Could I mount a 200 power head on a 2009 mercury 175 pro xs, and if so would I be able to tell a difference

    Not really... there's only been ONE 200hp 2.5L Optimax powerhead (RACING), and it is internally different.

    The current production 200 or 200ProXS is a 3L model (won't even bolt up).
