How much HP is enough ?  Long  ago I thought 550 would do it now we are close to 800 and I want 1000.

bigger is better.and its nice to have the big power to power your way outa things ,but to me the bigger you go the more work it gets.and it can take some of the fun outa our crazy hobbie. some times its fun just to have a low buck  mild hp(350/400hp) motor just to go beat on without a care in the world of what might break and how much its gonna cost you to replace or rebuild it....just my two cents
