Suzuki 50's or 60'?

Thinking of replacing my Honda 50's with new fuel injected Zuki's.. will stay either with 50's that weigh about the same as my 50's or go to 60's that will add about 100#'s to my transom.

Anyone using these engines that has MPG and how they like em...


Thanks.

Run a 19' wellcraft with twin 70's which are the same weight as the 60's. Have had zero problems and runs awsome. Would recomend buying the same motor under the Johnson cowling. Same motor with much better warranty.

I Run a 17" Whaler on a 70 I've only got 20 hours on it. SWAG (scientific wild ass gess) on the MPG would be 4+

No problems with the 70's while we owned them. They would be my choice again.

Thanks for all the info...


But after talking with Gato man, have decided to run my Hondas til they flame out and I need to call VA for a tow!

Then will repower to the 70's... cause the idea of big friggin airs in the cat sounds bitchin!!!
