    Gauges fluctuating, bouncing around

    Mercruiser 120 convert to automotive.

    no, there is no special bolt pattern. the merc 2.5 is the same as a Hyster fork lift 2.5 which is the same as a 1962 Chevy II 2.5. other than the big gap in lobe angles, small duration on the cam, the non-vacuum advance and the wet exhaust. its basically a small truck motor.

    Fixing Dings and Dents

    the boat has been either repainted or a different color gel applied at some point. so matching may or may not happen. regarding the gouges and chips, thicken gel will work. that crack should be investigated further.
