Re: Is my mercruiser ford or chevy? 5.0 MPI

Just to back up a friend

Chrysler 360

Volvo 280

Sadly I blew the damn thing up again. What's this, 6, 7 times? It getting replaced with the same 454 that replaced it in the Nova. The Nova just got a 496 I built over the winter. Not sure what I'm doing with the Moper 360 yet.

And much cheaper!

Blowing up the 360 last fall (oil pump took a crap on me) after 2 hours on a rebuild was a major setback but it will be done again soon. I want to get the Monza done so I can get back to this one.
It has counter rotating 454's (one in the front and one behind the cockpit) going to one casale gearbox and out to one prop shaft. A little different.
