Would someone be kind enough to answer something for me that I can not find with google?:

I need to know if the motor described in thread title is what is referred to as a looper AND if the information above is enough to know whether it's a FICHT motor. Thanks, George

It is a looper and It's not a Ficht due to the carbs.

This is a very strong and reliable engine (if good maintained!)!

Thanks so much for your replies. They're going to tip the scale for me and I might go ahead and drive 2-1/2 hours to see (and maybe buy) just such a motor on a 196 fish and ski 19.5 ft Javelin boat (also 2000) and an aluminum trailer. Motor has 150 hrs. Whole pkg being offered for 6500.00. Thanks again guys,
George
