Call Ed's and see what they say. Everyone I have spoken to about them states their prices are for motor only. They'll pull another thousand or so out of you for controls, cables, oil tanks, prop, etc.

Also check with you local Johnson dealer about warranty implications. I recently spoke with a Suzuki dealer as my brother is repowering his 19' Grady. We were told that he would sell us the motor in a crate with all the rigging and we could install and wire it up. The warranty would not be affected as long as we brought the boat back to him to check before firing it up for the first time. That knocked about $900 in rigging charges off of the price....
