depends??? 2 stroke? 4 stroke?
I would say 200 2 stroke would be the max....but someone that used to be a member here had twin 125s I think... someone will be along with a better memory than me...

I have no idea why anyone wants to add these huge gas guzzling motors on a V20??
A 150 is all it needs with out all the weight on these old boats. Unless you are on a fresh water lake you can't even use all the power on ocean water unless there is zero wind, Do yourself, your wallet, and the boat a favor and good with a nice 150 or something

Actually, the only reason I did it on my V is because I wanted to swap motors with what was on my Hydra... I didn't have a choice... Otherwise, I agree with MJ. A 150 seems to be the ideal.

It depends on your particular hull..some models are rated for only 200 hp...but I'm pretty sure I've seen others rated for 235... Going over the stated HP limit won't get you in trouble w/the law so much as your insurance company...they are reluctant to insure an over-powered boat... What year model V20 do you have and is the ID Plate still readable?...
