How do you like the motor so far? I have one on order that I'm planning on putting on a GT 1750HD and I'd just like to know what your thoughts are on the engine?

Be careful with the tie-down hooks on the rear of the boat. They tend to bend easy. I fabricated some strong ones to put bold on the rear of mine onto the kik plate.
