    For just playing around I think you will have a good time. The lower unit will be the biggest draw back. Yes it is top heavy but going in a straight line I don't think you will have any problems, it would not be good for turning in a race. I think you will see around 55 MPH depending on what props you have.

    Am I wasting my time and money

    I acquired a hydro and motor in good shape for almost nothing. The motor is a standard mark55. I added a header, lighter flywheel and shaved a little off the lower unit. Question is am I wasting my time messing with the regular service motor. It’s mounted pretty high, is that going to throw off the balance ofthe boat and can I really expect any kind of speed from the thing. I’m not a racer just going to mess around down the street in good old Lake Erie.
