Also that 83 200 is only 360lbs and puts out over 200hp. It was the first year they put fingerports in the 2.4L. You'll be 50+ mph easy with the right prop and motor height. Go through that motor this winter and you won't be sorry!! I burn 9gph @ 33/34mph with my 200 in perfect conditions. Check the gear oil for water . . . pressure test the lower unit (and put in a new water pump) before you run it.
