Alternative outboards for well project
Hello everyone, I am the new owner of an Alberg 30. I've decided to remove the questionable atomic 4 and do an outboard well conversion, I just received the templates from James in the mail today. I am having trouble locating a Tohatasu 9.8 like he uses-they are backordered for at least 6 weeks. Can anyone give any advice on a similarly sized alternative? I understand the 9.8-9.9 differences to be that some 9.9s are in fact a detuned 15 and too big for the project. Hondas appear to have an 8 and a 9.9 that are the same base engine, does anyone have experience or possibly even measurements of one of these? I can't find the kind of measurements I need like cowling height, etc. anywhere online. Thanks -Aaron
