How does this displacement compare to the earlier Mercury 90 4-stroke? Presumably a displacement gain by using an unsleeved block?

The elimination of the bulky and heavy iron sleeve is one of the most interesting innovations - it will be interesting as we see it trickle down to the lower HP applications where the displacement vs. weight gains will be even more pronounced.
