If this is going to be your first big boat stay away from the twins unless you have a big wallet. One big block will push any Convincor just fine. Just think early 90's boat means a lot of parts are tired and your going to replace 2 of everything.
14 quarts of oil
16 spark plugs
16 plug wires
2 carb rebuilds
and twice the gas its not worth it in a Convincor run far and fast and don't second guess the boat.
The way I look at it if a boat has twins when its new your in good shape. When the boat gets a lot of time and age on them sell them and let some other guy deal with the 2 of everything headache
