No he didn't..the motors have very low hours on them since first rebuilt so there's not enough history there yet.
I have friends who have seen 100-150 hours out of motors like this and others who have seen less than 60.
I guess a lot depends on maintenance and style of running.
I usually change oil / filters every 10 - 15 hours as I'm sure you do , hopefully maxing out the engine life.
Post some pics of those bad boys when they're done !!

Hey Wes , Were are you going to keep the boat? . I know of a hydro hoist that would hold that boat , and if you act early you could probably get a spot in the marina I keep my boat. Tom
