V20 member with E-tec

So it seems no one yet has an Etec. I am considering repowering with an ETEC with a bracket of cours, once my 470 merc decides to be a nuisance. Anyone have some first hand experience with the ETEC yet.
 
Jackman has had his for about a week now. Go to "Performance" and read his thread about the 225 honda. What started as a honda thread has morphed into buying a new boat and hanging a 200 etec on it.

Sounds like a plan to me... ;D ...
 
The motor I priced comes with the minimum gauges. The E-TEC offers gauges that hook to the same buss as my Lowrance 339. I'm just wondering if the computerized gauges are worth it. They do just about everything but for a price. I'm asking for you thoughts. Thanks Billy Mac ;D

Mac, if the digital gauge package offers a fuel-flow monitioring feature, then it's worth it...unless you already have a fuel-flow meter ;) ...

If it's in the budget, then DO IT...my friend got all the ''smart" gauges that come w/ the Verado...it's pretty cool 8) ...
 
Once again, I'll repeat, your gonna be looking at them gauges every time out for many a year to come...

If you can swing it, you'll be kicking yourself everytime out if you don't so it, or, you'll spend money on gauges twice.

Then again, if it's a deal breaker, we can live without the greatest gauges. You know, needs & wants and all that stuff.

With the cost of a new engine, how much more is the gauge set up that you want. If your spending around 13,000 for the engine then whats another 5 or 6 hundred. Just my opinion.
