What ya think for my 19-6. I can get it for a killer price. I know every one seems to think that my 115 yamaha will be fine. but it needs a rebuild. so what ya'll think about a 01 yamaha 150 ox66 fuel injected.

Might be a little too much.

That might be ok... take a look at the weight- that is the most important aspect.  If a 150 is not extraordinarily heavier than a 115, you'll probably be fine... but that assumes that you use the power wisely.

I think the 19-6 was rated for up to 185 HP, so I would say go for it!  You can never have too much power!   :twisted:

However, this may be a bit much...   :roll:

Seriously, I've seen 150s on several 19-6 boats and the owners seem to think very highly of the performance and balance.  I think you would be happy - and the OX66 series has a great record for reliability.
