I know this isn't a Sho but the link below is for a Chevy crate 350 @ about 3440 dollars how is a power head 17,000 I would think the labor to put the Chevy in couldn't be over 2-3 thousand dollars. I am in no way doubting you just thinking out loud, if this is the case Yamaha is taking advantage of a lot of people https://www.chevrolet.com/performance/crate-engines/small-block-350-290-hp

Yeah, good luck with that Chinese scam site. It's been mentioned on more than a few different fishing and boating forums.

Ok...so I don't sound like a total "Yamaha Homer". I will say this....
The 50 hour service, doing it myself today, it was expensive.
I bought all 3 filters..... VST-$47, low pressure pump filter-$21, main fuel filter-$40.
Plugs, $9ea
5 quarts yamalube $9 .78 ea. Yamaha/Denso filter $27.50
Fuel injector service $80.
Yamalube 90w for lower unit -$30.
Then....$40 worth of Yamaha Ring Free every two months.
Plus, add all the little junk needed to cleanly change the oil.

I believe in the next year or 2 you will start to see the rebuilding start to come about more. The flame spray coating can be redone. As ling as the block is in good shape it can be rebuilt. Now, when the block is shot and you have to go to yamaha is when it will get pricey. Hopefully a shop or two with the capabilities will salvage some blocks for rebuilds and sell them.

Which SHO do you have? I thought the 200, 225's and 250's had 20 hour service and then every 100 hours from there.

And people say they prefer a 4 stroke over a 2 stroke because they don't want to add oil...

My merc dfi oil is $40.00 a gallon and it burns it like there is no tomorrow. The sho oil is cheaper. I appear to be burning 1 gallon about every 8-10 hours.

Hows big blue been fishing Scout? Did you fish Two Guys? My bud and I did, we got our azz handed to us! We didn’t even bother to weigh in because we knew we didn’t have enough. I used to do fairly decent there, but the lake has had my number the last few times I went there. I finally have enough jugs to buy in bulk on the oil, should save a few $$$.
