Like 1200 or less I believe, last I checked they were around 1500 shipped on ebay. Mikuni and exhaust are a must though, but still less than the cost of a briggs. Model is a gth990

All the hype about em bein so bad ass, but when my buddy bought into it, his was a turd. Bone stock, it would barely even plane his boat, add Mikuni & gut the exhaust (because he can't find anyone offerin aftermarket performance exhaust for it) and it will basically keep up with a stock 35 Briggs. I know there's a few guys on here runnin em, glad they're havin good luck with em, but I personally wouldn't. Here's a new 35 Vangguard I saw on Ebay for $2k tyd. http://cgi.ebay.com/35hp-Briggs-Stratto ... 53e4e3f5a6 _________________ 1846 GTB & 35 GTR Team Gator-Tail Killer Kallz & ANGLE PORT dealer (409) 720-8949
