I would think that would be a complicated swap.

And $30.000 dollars later on a $1.000 dollar boat. :wow:

Yeah your right, ill wait to see how hard i got bent before i start that swap.
Is there a difference between automotive and marine blocks and heads?

Ive also got a line on a 2010 trailer triple axle for a 27-30 ft for around 4000.00. Is that decent or is there a better buy on trailers.

We had a couple pretty nice ones the same year, sell at our dock this past fall for about $11k each. Not knowing what you have in the boat, I would just caution about getting into it for more than they are worth. And diesels would do it unless you happen to have a couple laying around in your shop.

Good luck with your project.
