[QUOTE="LarryMc, post: 432033, member: 13895"] Found a 2007 Yamaha 70hp 2S (prop) on eBay. It's a little overpriced according to NADA, but not bad. Thing is, even though it's rated 70hp, it has the same size motor as both the 60 Yamaha and the pre-98 60/40 Merc 2S (51.8 ci). I can't help but wondering if there is actually a noticeable difference in the 60 & 70, especially after being converted to a jet. I still want to try to find a 90hp Yamaha 2S to convert, but I can't help but wonder if the 70 would be worth considering. Any thoughts? I know there are a few people here running Mercury jets with the 51.8 motor. Do they perform as well as the 59 ci motor used in the 98 t0 05 Merc jets? [/QUOTE]
