I think that covers it. Sorry I was so long, life is nuts lately.

Go4Broke- those are great! I love that color of red in your carpet! All those plastic panels in the side walls & cuddy are gone in my boat. So I will have to design some "custom" stuff (similar to my Formula) and build them in my shop.

This is turning into a WHOLE lot of work!!
We pulled the engines this week... one is a Mark IV one a Gen V.
I don't know how the internals match up but we will know soon. The starters are totally eaten up with rust/corrosion & would barely turn over.
The bad news is that one engine has an ALPHA bellhousing & coupler!! One gimbal (old style Bravo) is worn out- both axis! The other is new Bravo style with internal reservoir. The drives are also different! What a mess. I indeed have a project here.

So now I am looking for a matching Gen V block & heads. The
Mark IV rotating assembly will work in the Gen V block. I need to pull & verify cams also. Whoever replaced an engine in this boat did a piss-poor job of it!! No wiring or plumbing is secured in the engine bay! Two different size & capacity bilge pumps. Next weekend I start stripping the engine bay for painting & reconditioning & removing the gimbal assembly. :( Well, it is the 1st step up the hill to completion.

Wow, that sucks. At least you bought it right, hopefully when you're finished it will be worth more than you paid!
