Well, just to let you all know I'll be putting my downpayment on the E-TEC this weekend, for my 87' Outrage 18. I'm 99% sure I'll be going with the 130, so if any of you have re-powered with the E-TEC, let me know your thoughts. I guess I juggled go with the 115 or 130 for a while, but definately leaned towards the 130, even though as stupid as it is, I wanted it in blue, but it's only availble in white for the shaft length. I'll post some pics this summer, hope everyone is well, here on the East coast, just anxiously awaiting summer fot the boating season to begin .....!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice! I finally pulled the trigger myself and will hopefully be picking up my rig this weekend with the new 2009 etec 150 on the back. Some of the pictures on my homepage are from the day I dropped it off for the re power. I will start a new thread once I pick it up and take it out with some performance results. Look forward to seeing you on the water off the cove.

Good luck,
John

Jamie, you can always have your engine painted blue if you're unable to get used to the white color.
