This is a small list. There are lots more, but it's a start. To answer your question, a 150 hp engine is considered by many to be the ideal engine for a V20. The brand you get is going to be your choice. Everyone has their favorites. Some like Mercs, some like Hondas, some like Yamahas, some like Evinrudes and Johnsons, etc. Each brand has it's good and weak points.
Looking at your "before" pics I see you have a lot of work to do. I'm sure that the "after" pics will look amazing. Good luck and if there's anything you need to know or don't understand fully, this is the place to ask. The collective knowledge that is here in these forums is simply astounding in it's depth and breth. Good luck
