Possibly buying an 05 420 from a friend with 480ce motors. Boat has 1150 hrs on it, he got it with 1000. The only history I have is a 1000 hr service done by Cummins when he got it 4 years ago. After reading and researching i am a little leary of these motors. Props are original size 22x27, has a hydraulic platform so It might have been loaded up in the past, no idea. I know it runs great but definitely needs some attention. I am thinking props tuned correctly and go through the cooling system, what else should be addressed to ensure long life? Should I be worried about the heads or how it was ran prior? I only hear the horror stories, how many of these are out there stock with no issues?
