If it's a crossflow like his page says, I would say it's too much money. Crossflows haven't been built in a V-6 since about 90, and for good reason. They are VERY reliable, but drink oil and gas like no tommorrow. I personally would hold out for a 91+ 150/175 looper. they aren't much better on gas, but are just as reliable(and most will argue they are more so). There only downfall is the optical sensor for the ignition system, but other than that the 91+ 150/175 is about the most praised OMC ever built(and was one of teh last 2 stroke carb'd engines they ever built as well).
