I have the same boat with a 1.6L SEADRIVE and it had a fresh rebuild on it. I was using a 15 pitch stainless prop and was turning 5300-5400 WOT with me and 2 dogs in the boat and 3/4 tank of fuel. The 1.6L is pretty underpowered for a V-20, and milage will suffer because of it. I had to run 4200 just to keep the boat on a plane with mine, and it sucked down 35 gallons in 2 1/2 hours of running during break-in(just before the transom delaminated). The 2.0L has ALOT more power potential to be had, but a repower with a bracket would make the most sense financially if you keep it.
