I can tell you the Merc is very quiet and you can definitely tell in sports mode that it is a v8. Also since it is NA it has that low end torque that is immediately on tap.

Sorry to burst your bubble regarding the V8 Verado but I believe the Mercury 350 Verado offered for the R6 is an in-line 6 with supercharger...
Still, pretty fast to plane (4.08 sec) and not bad top speed (55 mph). Also, the 350 gets the best gas milage out of all the OB offerings.
