I have re-powered my 1966 custom with a 2014 ETEC 90 2 stroke and the engine is a perfect fit for me. I replaced a 1986 Johnson 90 VRO in May. The weight difference is not much, about 20 to 25 lbs. My use is 90 % fishing the Galveston Bay and have been very pleased. I looked at all brands and the weight was a big factor to me. I am not sure about other areas of the country, but the price variance of all brands in the Houston area was about $200.00. The 6 year warranty was a big factor also.
