    Instrument cluster cover

    Don't think it left Chris Craft like that. With a dash brow maybe, however not with anything you must move out of the way

    94 Cobia 5.7 Chevy/Yamaha setup

    It's a 29 year old boat. Keyhole in transom is now standard. However you need a whole lot more than just a drive, you need all the bits that attache the drive to the boat. You have to remove the Yamaha motor and drive from the boat, and replace with a Mercruiser or Volvo Penta

    water in all 4 cylinders

    It's almost never the head gasket To test the water jacket. Drain the block and head, take a hose that comes from the transom shield and the hose that feeds the manifold and tie them together. I use my mityvac pump You can borrow a compression tester from your local FLAPS
