No experience with those, however if you are repowering anyway have you considered going with small diesel motors? Of the 3 people that I know who have repowered their gas boats with new gas motors, all 3 wish they had just spent the money and gone with diesel due to the efficiency and reliability...
Good Luck!

I am afraid the 6.2 would not have enough torque. I would go with the 8.1. Diesel would be nice but not cost effective.
