Thought i'd mention the following. After waiting a good while, I finally got my 90 hp E-Tec in Friday. Only thing was it's a 2005, at 2004 pricing! . Anyway, installed as a re-power, customer didn't like the 32 mph his 50 four stroke gave him. New engine went 39/40 mph, yes, quiet at all speeds (but not as quiet at idle as a four stroke). Went 5300 rpm at WOT. 19 inch Bomb aluminum prop. Small and compact and lighter than the four stroke. Customer bought the neat protective cover. Look'd nice and the customer is impressed!
