My new Dux is rated for 25hp, but I ocassionally go to a lake where the maximum is 20hp. It seems really silly to me to buy an engine 5hp smaller just for some arbitrary limit of one lake, and then suffer lower hp on every other lake I go to. I cannot afford to buy two engines. I have the self retraint not to open my throttle up all the way on this 20hp lake, but if someone spots the large 25 on the engine I may be in trouble.

Does anyone know if there is a place that refinishes cowlings? I'd like to change the 25 to a 20. Is there a place that specializes in decals for cowlings? The engine I am considering is a 1977 Johnson 25hp. But I am still browsing for other 25hp 2-strokes.

Thanks,
Chris
