Beau,
The 150 motor will be just about perfect. Maybe a little heavy since it is a v6. Make sure you move the batteries and other stuff up under the console. Scuppers under water may still be an issue though. You could always use the ping pong ball type scuppers. Most people say good things about those. Some people have the yamaha 130 2s and some have the suzuki 140 4s. They say that both of those motors push the boat great and get great fuel mileage. As far as the console goes, I would check out marine connection liquidators,
http://www.marconlq.biz/, some have found pathfnder consoles to fit pretty good. Trayder has one in his boat. You could always do like I'm doing. Its a lot of work for an old style console (no flush mount electronics) but to me its better than forking over another $400 to $600 for a console.
