1992 Johnson 200?

[houndawg]

I have a 1992 Johnson 200 model # vjslens,I was<br />told it should have casting #333108 on the cylinder<br />heads,but it has 333809-4 instead,any idea what<br />engine this is? I was also wondering if a set of<br />boysen power reeds would help this engine get up<br />on plane faster?

Did you buy this engine used, or why the question about the heads? Boysen reeds generally will improve idle, and mid-range punch.

engine is on a 92 stratos 201 bass boat i bought<br />back in the summer,I have just been playing with<br />the performance,props,motor heights & such & was<br />thinking about changing the reeds.dhadley had left<br />me a reply on another post back in the summer when<br />i was finding out about the engine & he said the casting # on the heads should be 333108,I looked<br />& they were not so I was just wondering if someone<br />had changed the powerhead.

Someone may or may not have changed the P/H. I bought a brand new in-the-box XP one time and the heads were not 3108's. In fact they didnt match. One was a -1 and the other a -4 or something like that. Anyway, I put on a set of 3108's and didnt really see any difference on the boat I had at the time. On a Stratos you may see a difference. <br /><br />Tell us more about your set up and where youre at now.
