1985 Merc 454 rebuilders in Florida
 

Hey gang,

I had an interesting experience overhauling my original Merc 454's on my 86' Miami Vice Edition 38KV in 2015 and learned a lot.

This time around on my 85' season one Miami Vice Stinger 390X I'm going about it with lessons learned.

The power was running good and smooth when surveyed, I pulled everything to install new transom and stringers.

I have a well recommended overhauler of the TRS drives and transmissions but I am still looking for input on overhauling the original 454's.

I would like to have the original engines disassembled, checked and if solid, rebuilt.

Any recommendations for experienced rebuilders / machine shops in Florida would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Tony

Flagship Marine in Punta Gorda ..(941) 639-3738....They built all the race engines in the height of the 70's & 80's racing days.
Ask for Steve.....He sold me my 35' Cigarette with 2 of the best 575 cu in engines Flagship ever built!

Do I see three Deloreans?
That's awesome!

Thank you very much, I will give them a call.

Thanks! Yes, that's my business.

I own DeLorean Motor Company Florida in Orlando... my guys are happy the Stinger is out of there and at the glass shop :-)

Way cool! I think your shop was showcased on Car Fix not too long ago?

Yes, thank you for recognizing.
