[QUOTE="cranksbait, post: 74135, member: 1193"] There is a huge difference. I had a 1993 Evinrude 50 on my Lowe 170. It was loud, smokey, and used A LOT of gas. I had to really plan when I went out. to make sure that I had the gas and the time to get there. I then upgraded the motor to a 2008 75 E-tec. Put it on the same boat. It made a huge difference. It was much quieter. Ran smoother, and smokeless. Obviously faster. Here is where it really shined. I went to a bigger motor and used LESS gas. Very noticable. For what I paid for the new motor will be what I save in gas money in about three years. I was really impressed. I was able to make to those far away places with ease and new I could get back.
