Default 1958 Mercury 700 question,,

I have aquired a very nice Merc 700 in excellent running condition.
Folks around this town are of the opinion that the 700 6 cylinder
would run circles around my 1981 Evinrude 70hp 3 cylinder. Would you
bother to swap motors? I have all the controls for the 700 so the
swap could be somewhat easy. Did those old 'tall boy' Mercs really
run that much better?

TNX!!
