sell your rig, get longer flat bottom boat, with surface drive, 35hp if you can afford it so you can do the available mods. thank me later. |

not really a wide variety of mods for the kohlers, maybe have the heads worked gut stock exhaust and try to find a carburator for it. |

I'd wait till you can afford a bigger boat or motor. Gotta look at it this way, your going to slow right now. Do you wanna drop 1000-1500$ to mod that motor to continue to go slow? Probably not! Sell that motor and use the money you were gunna use to mod the motor for a 35 surface drive. It will be faster and you won't waste your money if you decide to mod it |
