Re: motor
If your transom is unmodified, the '97 20" 135 Merc will be a good choice. I run a '92 20" 150 Merc, reman'd in '02, that actually produces close to 200 hp. I used to run a 120hp Chrysler (yes, a Chrysler), and it was adequate.
I moved up to the 150 because I bartered for it. I was actually looking for a mid-80's 115 or 140 Mercury inline 6 when I found the 150.
