Hello all,
I have a 1973 Sea Ray 165 with the MC1 outdrive, I got her at a auction and of course the engine has serious problems. The block has rather large crack under the exhaust/intake manifold. I have been looking for a used 4.1L and they are hard to find. Does anyone have any experience or advice on what may be an alternative engine to upgrade to? I am fine with doing the work but would like to keep it as straight of a swap as possible.
Cheers,
Cameron
