Like mentioned Strick's 20 sceptre was crazy tight with the v-8 in it. Can't remember if he said if he thought it was original or not but still crazy to say the least. Mine originally had the 6. I did the bracket deal as well. It was a lot of work but a good learning curve for me. The motor may be salvageable, I wouldn't spend a ton of time if you plan on swapping out in the future. GFS idea would get you riding for cheep an let you check out the ride quality, balance of the hull and give you an idea of what you like or may want to do moving forward. Lots of donor boats out there for a swap and a rebuild if you got the mechanical ability wouldn't be a bad idea either. The 20 sceptre don't need much power to run and even with the weight of the cabin forward it can be acceptable to weight shift so be carful to what you do put in it or on it.


Starting to see a common denominator here...and no im not in math class
