The other motor I might consider would be the Suzuki 90. Bitsamonkey showed some very impressive numbers on his 18. If i recall correctly he was showing 37 mph top end and cruising a 27 getting 6.5 mpg or so. Obviously these 4 cyl. motors are no speed match for the 2.4 L Merc, but the bennies out weigh that for me all day long. There are still some of these around with originally rigged evinrude 75 and 85 hp motors.
