The cost depends if you are going to do the work, or have a mechanic do it for you? Also how many damaged parts there are. Sometimes it is better to get a rebuilt power head. Again depending on how badly the motor was damaged. You have many options. I would first suggest asking a local mechanic what it would cost.

Would have it done by a mechanic. Not sure how much damage yet. Was running down lake when it just shutdown, Started it back up and was making a VERY bad knocking sound so I shut it down immediately and got a tow in. Going to have to wait a little while before I can take it to a mechanic, I was just trying to get a guess of about how much?

Do a search at the I'boats store for a rebuilt power head for you're motor. Then figure 150-200 more for the mechanic (depending on your location.). Should be a close number to start with.

You should have a mechanic look at it before you call the coroner. Hope you're motor isn't as bad as you think.

Thanks! Yea I'll have it checked out first cause it looks like it would be about $3000 for the powerhead But thanks for your help!

If its a crossflow, take it and the $3000 and get a newer model engine, if its a looper get a estimate. My $.02
