Johnson GT Venom V6

I am located in Louisville. I have a 97' F-150 w/ a 4.2litter engine. I am interested in that same replacement engine if it's cheep enough but if not i am also thinking about pulling all the computer system out and droping a 351 windsor/cleaveland in it w/ a 4-barrel carb system.

I have a 200 venom and love it. Best engine I,ve ever had.

thanks for the info man. So how does it do as far as gas economy?

If the motor has Ficth injection dont buy. Your motor in the truck will cost you more for the six than putting in an 8. Also check out the transom on the Hydro Sports. they are known to go bad in that boat. Make sure its solid, stand on the cavitation plate on the motor and move up and down. If the transom dont move you safe.
