I read in another tread that 2 x 454 side by side would not fit because of the width inside, unless you go in fiberglass modification on stringers. As far as alpha on 454, if you are polite on start and don't get air borned if could hold well, but it is not the best set up reliability speaking if you play rough...

My Marlin was a single 260 Alpha package and we changed it to a 502. Not that big of a problem. Merc will send you a template to lay out on the transom if you call them. The hole is bigger than the Alpha so didn't have to glass anything. Also attached pictures of 1983 39 Scorpion

You sell your boat,you are buying something else right????

Re: Show your Chris Crafts
 
If and when I sell it , I would like to find a Fittipaldi. Wondering about all the talk of the weak stringers in the 31ft. and 33ft. Stingers though. And, I promise I'll scan my brochure spec page on the 245. :(
