Lots of variables to consider. All cylinders nic? How many hours? What carbs? Etc. etc.

From what I recall the 260 is EFI and the 245 is carb?

Stoker is correct, Same block, 260 is EFI Horn, 245 is carb. I am guessing on top they make the same power when the carb is tuned correctly, but the 260 also had a bigger price tag as it was supposedly 15 hp more! I never ran a regulator on my 245 and that whole summer I never had to charge my battery (lead acid battery, do not remove the voltage regulator with an AGM battery)!!
