Re: fishing hydrostream???

Re: fishing hydrostream???
Do have a inline or a v6, if you have the inline those carbs won't work.

Re: fishing hydrostream???
The inlines were a blind bore block which means there is no head just a plate that covers the water ports, yes there is more to a 150 than a 115, the actual intake ports and exhaust ports in the cylinder are bigger on the 150 than the 115. Best thing is to find a bare 150 block or find a 2.0 or 2.4 liter v6 and put on it, they are easier to work on and modify

Re: fishing hydrostream???
there is a guy online thats offering an overheated 150. the entire thing for 250. if he is close i might grab it for a rebuild. if it is bad, what are my chances of finding parts to do a fresh bore cleanup and shave the head to make sure itss straight? how much would a rebuild cost at a shop?varmint1 wrote:The inlines were a blind bore block which means there is no head just a plate that covers the water ports, yes there is more to a 150 than a 115, the actual intake ports and exhaust ports in the cylinder are bigger on the 150 than the 115.

Re: fishing hydrostream???
Is it a inline? I would have to say it would cost around 1200 to 1800 for a shop to do the work and all depends on what they find

Re: fishing hydrostream???
ive looked and searched and looked some more.. i cannot find anything that will make more power easilyy with this motor.. if it runs like crap im gonna sell and look for a bigger newer motor. ill give anyone my taurus for a bigger running motor! mustangs are way easier to build haha maybe i need to talk to my grandpa and see what he says about it.. might be worth the convo
Re: fishing hydrostream???
I use my Vassarrette for musky fishing. 24v/55 thrust Motorguide moves it pretty well too. Platform and trolling motor can be removed in a minute if I want to take others along for a ride.
