    Speed increase from Nissan 9.9 to 15 hp conversion?

    I've got a 9.9 hp Nissan 'C' model that I'm going to convert to 15 hp. by changing the throttle cam. I've got two questions: 1) Is changing the cam the only change I need to make, and 2) how much speed increase will I get from my 14 ft flatbottom. I'm presently going about 11-12 mph (meas. by...
