[QUOTE="Crankbait, post: 446428, member: 21911"] The max up rating is 60hp. The 40 up was around 6 grand but the guy there said it wouldn't push my boat and that I needed the 65hp which was close to 10 grand. I'm just guessing it must have the 90hp head but I didn't think he would suggest that since it's over the max up rating. I'm only getting 31mph out of the Yamaha which I know is sad but I think it's in the carbs and I'm just sick of carb motors. I just spent 900 having all 4 rebuilt and the thing still feels like it's having trouble picking up. Idles great, starts easy, and has good response, but doesn't top out good. I've always wanted a jet and now I'm in a position where I can afford one but if this boat won't perform well or plows water then I'll sell it and buy another one.
