[basschaser]

The HO has the lightning gearcase and the reg has the magnum gearcase is the main difference. Judd Lasiter

I can try to help you out with a simple comparison. Before I married my wife she was like a HO. Now shes like a regular. Go figure. BCC

Wow BCC. Im not that brave. You better hope your wife doesnt see that. You might be a dead man. KentKent Charles 2002 Pantera Classic & 200 Yamaha VMax

HO= honest and opened minded. What were you thinking? BCC

[DPT2005]

OK, sure, what was i thinking. So youre saying that she was honest and opened minded before getting married, but now shes a closed minded liar. Just kidding. Im getting out of this before one of us gets in trouble. KentKent Charles 2002 Pantera Classic & 200 Yamaha VMax

The other difference at least for my year in the DI is that I have to have new indexed and properly gapped plugs every 60-80 hours. Getting the plugs indexed and gapped is huge in the performance of my engine. It once took Larry at H2O I think 10-12 qc12peps to find 6 that would index like he wanted in the motor. I believe this issue is no longer true in the etecs but it sure is a difference in my DI H.O..C.O.D. Jr. III

Ward, the indexing of the plugs is still the way they are, at least in my 2007 225 H O. pant 2 Bob

150 ho vs. 150 magnum, ho has more power through diff. programming, and of course the lower restriction lower unit design(BULLET), 200reg vs. 200ho- 2.6liter on regular model vs. 3.3 liter on HO model more torque and horsepower and has the bullet lower unit with diff gears, 225reg vs 225HO-same block size just different EMM (computer), bullet lower unit and the hp of the 250 model, 248hp at the prop, and then now the new 3.4liter 250 ho 274hp, 300 torque, and the 300hp 3.4liter, only 25-30inch shaft….oh and the HOs have cool stars and stripes decals, which look very cool, 2008 IS GONNA TURN SOME HEADS BOTH IN PERFORMANCE BOATING AND THE EVER COMPETITIVE BASS CIRUITSYour Signature …
