"The engines are 350 Chevs with Holley dual pumper carbs. I have the biggest brother (the AQ311) and it runs great.

A, B and C depends on engine design differences, and sometimes the drive they come packaged with; A being the oldest and C being the latest design. For example the AQ271A engine's compression ration is 8.5:1, while the AQ271C is 9.3:1."

"Bill,
I have the AQ271C with the DP-A drive and it is a very solid package. Like El Pescador's AQ311, it runs great and is somewhat simple to maintain. In my opinion, VP drives are built better than MC drives. Good luck.

I have twin AQ271C's with DP-A Drives and they have over 2000 hours on them.
The only problem I have with the drives is the suspension forks are starting to get pitted and the trim cylinders are starting to go.

They have been in saltwater since 1988 and the drives themselves look brand new still.
