Dug,

You can pick up a set of 8.1 Crusaders (385hp) with trans for about $26K-$27K (i.e. $13K-$13.5K per motor/trans).

For my 33, its the only viable option considering that new Cummins/Yanmars in the 315-330hp range are around $22K-$24K per side and the factory rebuilt Cummins are $19K per. Plus, I've also got a gennie so I'd be tacking on another $7K. Before I've even turned a wrench, diesels would cost me an extra $20K just for the rebuilt motors. At about 100 hours per year, its just worth the $$ for me.

Regards,
Doug L.
