merc alignment tools?
Just tossing this out there, looking to see if anybody has the merc alignment tools for checking the alignment of motor/outdrive yadda yadda as I'm hoping to dunk the new motor in the boat next week or hopefully week after at the latest.
Also really really not against somebody that has done it before and really knows what they're doing, but I can generally figure out things on my own. I can leave some collateral if needed. Hell might even have some parts you're interested in considering the only thing I reused from this 502 was the block and flywheel. |
PM sent.

OSO member Whoya sells them on ebay pretty cheap......
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Alpha-Bravo-...PuwYaQ&vxp=mtr I as well as many here have done business with him in the past with great results. |
Im in Joppa Md Im in Essex just about everyday. I can drop it off tomorrow if you need me too. And i'm looking for a 502 block to build from the ground up starting this fall.

Sorry haven't updated it, I'm actually in Pasadena now, hence why work is actually getting done on my boat. Have enough room to store it here and not drive to work on it.
Depending on how heavy the build is gonna be, I still have my stock rotating assembly but it spun bearings on #1/#2 rod bearings. Very minimal damage, could easily turn them and use that rotating assembly if you were interested. Also have the 088 heads that need some serious cleaning up but are good heads, with upgraded valve train in them, 1.7 ratio crane gold rockers, I believe a 500/502 cam hyd roller cam. was a gen VI 502 magnum that had sat for quite awhile, previous owner let water stand in the bilge and it kinda rusted and gunked up a lot of stuff and I'm way too anal to let that stay in the boat personally. http://i770.photobucket.com/albums/x...r/IMAG0136.jpg That's what came out http://i770.photobucket.com/albums/x...pssajd76de.jpg That's what's going back in |
Awesome! Yup marine blocks before machining I always mag and shot peen just to clear out all the rust. I used to work for a well known machine shop in the area. Let me know if you need that alignment tool. I can run it down tomorrow. I run service all over. Hit me up

will do. I'm hoping to get the engine test fired tomorrow and check for leaks, yadda yadda and then hopefully get it in the boat next week. From there I gotta figure out how it all goes back together to get it running again :lolhit:

Did you get them in?
|
nah, I've been working my ass off at work to the point that I finally had to tell them I'm just done, I can't do anymore (that's a whole other story in itself with my new ******* boss)
Plus the other night we looked at it and the original plans for putting the motor back in aren't gonna work so trying to find an alternative. I worked for Cummins when I pulled it so it was easy to use the shop crane on the weekend. I don't have those luxuries now :( |
