    Sea Ray 220 BR Remodel

    1. You can but your going to need more tools. I would suggest a vibrating saw, with a lot of blades. I use the half moon bi-metal ones 2. Either a sander, grinder and a vibrating saw 3. There is a possibility to get drawings from Searay, but most just save what they can of the stringer, lay...

    Chunks on Spindle

    I would lean toward just replacing the axle, but it can be fixed. Wire wheel is not going to fix it Find a place which just sells the spindle and then a welding shop. The shop can remove and install the new spindle.

    Ratios

    Yes, if both drives are standard gearing. The standard B3 drive gears are 32/27 upper for both 2.0 and 1.65 18/25 for 1.65 16/27 for 2.0 So if you change out the gears, you would have the original 2.0

    Ratios

    Going from a 2.0 and 26P props to a 1.65 drive, your going to need to drop the prop pitch to about 21 Even dropping to 21 your hole shot will be reduced because the motor doesn't develop the torque until the RPMs get higher

    Bravo 3 Sea Water Pump - What's this?

    You said Don't understand the spring clip The motor has an option to install a fresh water flush Tee fitting. Without the Tee, then there might be just a barbed fitting to join the 2 hoses. That said; your pump has drain fittings on entrance and exit to/from pump to drain water

    Mercruiser bogs only once or twice and then runs fine

    On the side of the carb you should find numbers 861448A1 , this is your carb number. It fires right up when cold and the choke doesn't move and stays open. This would mean its either hot all the time where your at, or the carb is running real rich. As Rick said, need to take the carb apart...

    What´s the best replacement for AQ271C (or 570) 5.7 GM engine, ideally stroker?

    You can put just vortec heads on your motor without the cam change. With cam change you will get all the power that originally came with the change. The heads may have bolts in other locations so ancillary items (alternator, power steering, dip stick) may not bolt up, don't know have to look...

    What´s the best replacement for AQ271C (or 570) 5.7 GM engine, ideally stroker?

    Vortec motor has different heads and cam, and yours would accept just a head change EFI and closed cooling cost, no way to get around it. Just depends on if its worth it to you. I've spent 3 times what my boat is worth because i like the boat
