Question about the '79 Sundancer 260.
I bought a project boat that came with the original 260hp Chevy 350. Turns out the block, heads, and manifold were cracked so I'm going to have to replace the engine.
Trying to get some insight on what other Sundancer owners have done...
I've thought about going with another 260hp SB Chevy motor or upping it to 300hp. Or going with a 454 pushing around 300-310hp. (I know the Alpha drive is only rated for 300hp).
Also on the fence about FI vs Carb. Leaning towards Carb because IMHO its closer to an original look and cheaper to mantain IMHO.
