I have a 2001 Alumacraft Lunker tiller. Have a 40hp Honda carberated on it. Thinking of going EFI. I’d like to go 50 hp, but I can’t remember what it’s rated for. It’s in storage and can’t get until April so I can’t check the tag. I’m pretty sure that year tiller is 50, would anyone know for sure? My dealer has retired and can’t find anything on the web.

That was one backtrolling machine for me and cheap on fuel thinking it ran about 32-34pmh

Alot of money to spend to save a few bucks on gas.
Fumes from backtrolling can get nauseous, do you run a good synthetic oil? Should help quite a bit with that.

The 40 Honda that I have now is a 4 stk so fumes aren’t an issue. It’s carberated and the EFI would be much better. You’re right about the a lot of money part, that’s why it’s still in the thinking stage.

Thanks HRG, gave him a call, he was going to send me a picture of the tag if it wasn’t under a snow drift. Must be too much snow, haven’t heard back. The reason I was thinking of going 50 hp was in case I would ever switch to a Classic or similar floor plan, I would use the same motor.
