Marinizing GM 8100
Just thinking... ahead to a re-power in my boat. I see lots of threads and article's about LS swapping motors. I haven't seen any on taking a 8100 out of a Chevy truck and picking up an ECM, manifolds and intake off from ebay and having a fairly low cost 8.1? Am I missing something? Any thoughts just, seems like a stable platform and low cost way to get more power without going all out.

How much does the average 496 375hp complete used takeout generally go for ?
closed cooling, marine exhaust, marine accessories , ecu’s, wiring, fuel system may just end up being more value then starting with a motor out if a truck.
