    FNG (new guy)

    My name is Eric. Just joined and planning to rebuild a 1998 225 EFI for my Bass Boat.

    I bought a spare powerhead last year.

    Interested in tricks and mods to make it better.

    Thanks, Eric

    If it's a 98 3.0 it will eat a lot of fuel. I have one (stock) about 16gph at cruise. And 25+ at wot. They are very strong even in stock form also. You can bump the computer and upgrade intake to a 4 barrel style.
