It has been a very reliable engine and it moves out my V pretty good. I just wanted your input on that particular year....and I've asked this before but never got a difinitive answer....the stock factory decals on the hood say Johnson 150 "silver star series." Any idea what S.S.S. means?

The silver star series I believe was just a bass boat designation, pretty much just decals. The 60 degree looper engines are argueably the best outboard that OMC EVER built. They are a bit thirstier than an equivelant sized YAMAHA, but make up for it in reliability and tough as nails durability.
