Hi Guys. I have a 1993 Formula 31 PC cruiser with stock 454's and the Starboard motor started to leak water in through the y-Pipe gasket last week. We are in the process of pulling the motor to fix it. Do the rear motor mount bolts have nuts on the bottom of them? If so, how do you get to them because the Y-pipe goes right underneath them. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

The rear motor mount nuts are held in place by the inner transom plate. You don't need access to them to remove the long bolts.

BTW, pay attention to the fiber washers and short springs that are under the bellhousing mounts. They need to go back in there otherwise drive alignment will be way off.

Good luck,

Kurt

Thanks Kurt! I tried to get them out last night and they are not budging. I sprayed them with PB blaster and I'm going to let them sit for a couple days. Anymore helpful hints?
