ST, you might want to reach out to pipe dream. He just put a new Suzuki df175 on his v20 I'm sure he would have a lot of input about how well it worked out for him.

Armchair all the way, but out of those three options I would go for the Suzuki.

I am assuming that you are going to put a bracket on your boat, there have been several people who did that over the years here on the site, as I remember, the most important thing to consider for the new motor is weight...the lighter the better.
I am a Suzuki 4 stroke fan as well, the 140 I had on my V worked very well, it was 410#s dry.

Thanks for the suggestion.
Well I have a few hours today so I decided to try and get the engine off. The wiring was more of a pain in the *** then the engine. Here are a few pics!

Are u talking merc 150 or new 175 V6. The 150 is around 475lbs. I d get the one with the best dealer presence in your area.
Always been a big fan of the sea drive conversions. Keep posting progress reports

Interesting removal. Never seen a cherry picker (engine hoist) quite like that one before with the triangular feet setup. I like the idea of the center post allowing you to swing the load like a davit crane. How sturdy is that?
