[QUOTE="LaqueRatt, post: 510634, member: 32586"] I've been playing around with motors on 14' tinnies. I found a 14 HP works pretty well and gets up on plane without a lot of trouble. An 18 is much better and IMO a 25 is almost too much. My current Mirro is rated for 35 BTW. I doubt if it's worth your time and money to mess with a 9.9. Everybody wants to turn a 9.9 into a 15 so naturally the parts are expensive and hard to find. It's almost cheaper to just buy the 15 you want, even if you just need the carb. [/QUOTE]
