Yes I sold boat. I purchased two Mercruiser reman. engines coast approx. $3,500, two new carb. $650. odds and end total about $8,500. in parts.
Engines came out and went in with a fork lift, quickly and no issue.
The re-man. long blocks from Mercruiser are built in their factory like new.
I did the work myself with the assistance of my nephew who is a certified Mercruiser machanic. total job took us approx. 20 hours. not that big a job, just moving parts from old engines to new.
Good Luck, if boat is in good shape it is worth doing. Frank
