[QUOTE="gieser121, post: 471213, member: 25387"] Thanks for the input guys , I was just asking for input on a 98 Johnson 50spl because I can pick one up for $1k that's in really nice shape and I've heard that you can really make them scream or that they rev out faster and lighter than a 3 cylinder Yamaha that I currently use ... My Yamaha started life as a 40hp and I've since put 50 carbs on it, CC reeds and 50 exhaust tuner and was thinking of a phase kit from Hydrotec ,they claim ten more hp .If anyone has experience with those kits I'm all ears I have my fuel tank forward on the boat a HS handle just behind the center bench the boat sits fairly level and gets on plane easily ,It moves along pretty well 32mph with just me and around 26 with my wife, two labs and our gear ,but you know how it is always looking for more power ....
