$510 is a lot of money to spend on a $500 motor. 
 
I would try looking over on Scream and Fly to see if you can come up with a used kit or a 25 inch mid unit...they do a lot of that sort of swapping around over there...and they all want 20" and 15" stuff so they get rid of 25" stuff cheep. 
 
I had a 1984 115 Merc on a 19 ft CC years ago, it would do 43 mph, it was very similar in weight to the V20.
