I am in the process of restoring a 1967 donzi 28 sportsman. I have been looking at twin diesels by yanmar. these are really nice engines but the cost is very high and I feel I will never recoup my investment if at some point I decide to sell. If I choose gas what would be the more desireable,smallblock or big blocks?I would like to keep the restoration as close to original as I can.

Jag, Is your boat a V-drive? If so SB 300hp would push her about 45-50mph. BB 502 or 8.1 420hp should get her up to 60-65mph. (Only my estimate on speed.) GEOO
