[QUOTE="wmk0002, post: 420130, member: 13975"] Yep, the typical WOT range for the 15hp is 5500-6500, however, the late 80's to early 90's (possibly more) are 5500-7000. My factory service manual verifies it. But believe me, I was skeptical....still am a little honestly lol. It doesn't really sound like it is overdoing it at 6900 rpms with my 8" pitch prop, but I may re-prop to get it down a little closer to 6500, as long as it doesn't feel like it lugs out of the hole.
