From the catalog it appears to be the same basic engine as the 120-140 LOOPERS. The 90 degree loopers have been around since 85, the biggest change they went through was a displacement increase in 88 to a larger bore. They are known by the commercial guys as the die-hards. They are tough! And will rarely leave you stranded if taken care of. I RUN THE SH!T out of my 140 on my bowrider, and it just keeps running better and better. There are a few members here with the same basic engine on there V's, and they seem happy from what I remember from older posts. I know my bowrider runs just as fast with my 85 140 as an identical boat with a 95 150 SUZUKI SUPER SIX BASS edition does(53MPH). It will be a BIG change versus a 115HP cross-flow, as well as better on fuel.

I am very happy with my 140 4stroke on the V, I know it is a complete different animal from a 2 stroke 135 but similar in HP rating. If the price is right, DO IT!!!!
If you don't like it, use it until the next killer deal comes along and switch it out.
