Hi Michael
Use the search feature on this website and you will turn-up a lot of info regarding your question.
If you wish I can probably e-mail you a photo of the Honda 8HP, 4 stroke as installed in my CD25. I am very happy with this engine

Hey Jim,
If at all possible, may I also get a copy of your e-photo of the Honda installation? I am also thinking about it, but am afraid to rip things up too much. I sincerely appreciate your help.

Thanks.

I installed a Yamaha 9.9 four strke about nine years ago in my Cape Dory 25.
Everything worked out fine; I had to modify the false transom / well back section, but boy was it worth it; let me know if you want further details.
