So bought a 21 footer that had been garaged for the last 7 years. Repowered in 2006 1 year on the water then garaged.
Going though the invoices provided by the PO. engine serial number 2499529 EMR. 5.7 290HP @5100 RPM.
Bargain hot rod motor not Marine.
Now on to my questions.
What thermostat should I run? Raw water cooled
Marine motors 140 to 150
Auto 240? Can't run ray water at 240 So 180?
What is the difference between the marine 350 and automotive 350? All accessories transfered over from the original mercrusier.
Figure I'd run it till t grenades then put in a marine motor.
looking or any thoughts n the automotive motor first
then
When time who do I look to for a new long block?
thanks In advance for input
