Cracked block in my scarab!

Anybody know of a good deal on a chev 350..... My poor winterizing skills and lack on IO experience resulted in a @#$% engine from last winter. Something to be said for OBs!

Silver lining is the engine in there now is a 305 and I was able to hit 70Mph on the GPS. Good chance I can beat that by going up to the 350!!!!

And how does that work with the Scotty downriggers????

A Mercruiser plus series reman engine might be a good option for you. Is that an Alpha or Bravo drive? I do have most models in stock.

It's an alpha 2 with transom/water injected exhaust. I'll shoot you an email for your pricing the carbed 383 would be awesome. Oh ya, the scotty DR's aren't mounted on this one amigo but I like the way you think.....

My first boat was built by Dave's father. 19' Catalina V-Drive runner bottom. Had an LS7 BBC crate engine
Glad to hear he is still around.
