Hey Jake,

Thanks for the reply. I'm glad that you underscore a reliable motor. Buiders that talk about a 200hp type I motor that will be reliable are liars whether they know it or not. A 150hp type IV sounds just about right for the long haul. I would do that if I was staying air cooled. Just out of curiousity, what would that motor cost as a turn key?

Jason
