def a looper...i dont beleive merc ever made a 175 cross. the highest hp they made that might have been a cross were the old inline 6's. and they made a 150 at the most and i beelive a hotter version of the 150 which still was the same block config. yours is most likely a 2.5 liter looper. should be around 120-125 stock. also oil inj on those engines if it has a remote tank are ok untill the nylon gear on the crank goes out then the engine will tell you your running out of oil. also make sure you change the oil check valve if you are keeping the inj.

also pull the lower plug on the gearcase and smell the oil and look for metal.
