I gave him the info i found out, and the main reason I was looking into this cause he was focused on the drive hurting him and I just don't think thats the case. I put him in touch with the guy who I do my stuff with, and he is going to get the guy who built his engine to talk to him as well. The guy that built his motor is a very trustworthy guy, and a big drag racer in the area that build fantastic car motors. Now with that said that doesn't mean he can build a good boat motor as we all know that a great engine builder for cars doesn't make a great engine builder for boats. The motor is a boat motor and was a long block that was rebuilt by the engine builder. So more then likely the engine builder just rebuilt the long block, which was said that was in good condition and only needed to freshen cylinder walls not bore them, and all new bearings. So he probaly just reassembled everything and sent it on its way. The guy that I do my stuff with said it probably will need a cam swap, fuel pressure adjutment, and a tune. But without really seeing the boat and be able to diagnose it that is just a determination based off of a conversation on the phone.
