Actually, I think the motor is an '89...not sure if that makes a difference. I have been leaning toward re-powering rather than a rebuild on this particular engine. I called a couple of local marinas and they said I would be looking at closer to $5,000 if they found a motor (mid 1990's carbed, etc). I have been pricing on Ebay and have found 1990's 150 hp's anywhere from $2,000-4,000. I have been leaning toward buying one from a reputable dealer online that sells alot of engines and has outstanding feedback and feedback from hundreds of former customers. I will link a couple engines I am considering....give me some feedback if you like!
