I'm doing some research on
I'm doing some research on long blocks and people seem very happy with the quality of First Mate. I'm looking to replace my 318 225 HP Chrysler. First Mate says their engine is a 200 hp model. I have a 24 ft fiberglass Lyman that weighs about 4500 lbs and even a 225 hp sounds a little underpowered. Is 25 hp a big deal and why wouldn't they use the same specs to give it 225 as original?
