I got a suprise when pulling my 502 apart
Im buiding new engines this winter, so I pulled the starboard engine apart and found, what I expected, dimple rods. While pulling the pan off the port engine, what do I see 12 point cap screws and H beam rods. They turned out to have Mercury Racing stamped on them. I thought all along these were the original engines for my boat but not so. The starbourd engine has a Mercury metel plate rivited to it and the other one not. So do you guys think this was a replacement long block, the crank looks different also. I already have my new cranks and rods so this rotating assembly will be for sale.
Whats this crank, rods and pistons worth.
