Were those 500hp's?? If not what were they?

There 500's . I wish somehow they could turn into 575's but I don't believe that will happen.

Hey Kurt,
Port Jacksonville marine will be doing the rebuilds. Kevin Brady has won my confidence in that he will make sure a good job will be done.

Take my word for it, the feeling once everything is done you quickly forget about all the bs.

A lesson to be learned by all.

Buyer Beware!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seems you cannot trust people to be honest about the condition of things.

Probably the worse it is the more they lie?

I have learned that you better at least do a compression check, leak down test, pull the thermostat housing and valve covers for a look.

A few hundred spent up front may save you thousands. If the seller refuses to let you spend your money, don't walk, run like hell!:eek:

Sorry for you also
 
Vagrant, Hate to hear about the motors. I just inquired about 2 500 EFI's in the parts section of OSO. Hope everything works out. I think if anything goes wrong with my EFI's I will put in twin 6.5 turbo diesels. They seem to perform very well. If I can get my boat to run as well as the dually, I will be happy.
Talk with you soon.

Vagrant, you are scaring the hell out of me. I haven't had mine out yet either. How many hours did yours have showing? I had my boat surveyed also, but due to winter layup, the engines weren't started. I wish you the best on gettng yours back together soon.
