    Are Force OBs as good as others?

    That is mainly the Chrysler motor. It's as good as anybody else's just an older design. The problem is that Mercury owned them and Mercury sucks at carrying parts.

    Are Force OBs as good as others?

    That is not what happend at all. U.S. MARINE bought Chrysler and changed the name to force in the late 70s early 80s. Brunswick bought US marine in the early 90s and kept the name.
