My buddy just smoked down his 2005 150 rude and was looking to convert to a 175. He was told that the block is the same and the factory just puts a different computer in there to make it a 175. His boat dealer won't do anything like that for him, so I guess my question is does anyone offer a setup that would do that for him or can it only be done thru the factory. Thanks ahead of time for any and all help or opinions on this.
