I'm currently running a 2 cyl. 50/35 jet and am looking for more power. I feel like my Grizzly is just a little too heavy and I'm looking to get a bit more performance. I've considered getting a new Merc 60/40 but I'm just not convinced it would be much of an upgrade. I'm looking really hard at finding an older 3 Cyl. 60 OMC and put a jet on it. I know they run the larger impeller 6-7/8 which should be a good upgrade over my current 6-1/8. I'm just wondering if it would be a noticeable difference. I'm estimating the additional weight to be somewhere around 40lbs. Plus I'd need to use a static jackplate since it would be a 20" motor.
Can someone with experience with these motors provide any insight? Would it be worth it or should I look further?
