    Mercruiser 165 Straight 6 - GPH ?

    All, I had my 165 hp straight 6 rebuilt last year and it runs great! But I'm a little worried about the amount of gas it is using. I have a 18 gallon tank and used over half of it just cruising around the lake at about 3k rpms in about an hour. That seems high to me. What are your thoughts...

    22' SS Repower question

    All, First off - great forum here with lots of ideas. My question is this. I have a 22' SS open bow with a frozen 470 in it and I have purchased a inline 6 that runs great to put in it. Will the outdrive that is with the 470 work with the inline 6? Thanks!
