I'm sure someone has repowered their B31 w. this engine- If so, what size gear? Have you been happy.
One consideration is Striper fishing and would prefer not to put a trolling valve on-
Thanks,

Actually there is a problem as the new motors don't have an opposite rotation option. A number of the B33 guys have gone this route & were very pleased with the results.chris pague wrote:What engines are in the boat at this time. If they are 454s there should not be a prob w/ the current trans.
I can't remember what tranny ratio they used but they did have to upgrade shafts to 1 1/2". One guy ended up going with some thing that is supposedly stronger than the Aquamet shafts. His cruise is now almost what my WOT is.
