    That was my thought process too. They ditch the boat bc the most expensive part died.

    Yea I was looking for an abandoned boat to buy just for the engine. But once this is fixed, it’s going right up for sale so I’m fine with buying a rebuild from Michigan Motors for $4k.

    Found it! So buying this remanu’d engine, I would or would not need parts from the old engine?

    Hey, BT. We’re in Sweetwater. I really appreciate everyone’s feedback. I didn’t expect this much help overnight. What is the difference a long block and a small block?

    Disclaimer: I'm a girl. I know about a lot of things... Not boats. Will describe my issue best way I know how... and it'll make some of you cringe. But you're my last stop before I cave to the marina's $15k quote. 2001 Sundeck, 5.0L Alpha (I think) Ran fine on the water up until the final...
