Mercruiser 470 and complete outdrive
This came out of my 1979 V20......good running mercruiser 470 with external alternator kit with wagner 1 wire heavy duty marine alternator, electronic ignition, also complete outdrive and many extra parts to boot....
Extra Parts included: Starter, Fuel Pump, Distributer, intake manifold, head, carb, 2 voltage regulators, gasket sets etc....extra prop, so 2 good props total, Hyd Trim Pump....etc..interupter switch...linkages etc...plus more misc stuff. The motor has 1480 hours and is a 1979 compression is good in all cyl.... Outdrive has a fresh rebuild and is in great shape..upper and lower... There are a couple issues to disclose... the alt bracket is cracked and has a the bolt broke off in the block I havent had time to fix it, The exhaust manifold is rusted up....doesn't leak or get hot...but it needs a new one someday ....The reason I am getting rid of this set up: The coupler went out so I had to pull the engine/ drive etc...I decided when it was out that Im not putting her back in.....I am going to put either a diesel inboard direct drive shaft and stuffing box,,,(SS shaft, w/ bronze prop..) unit in the boat or a gil bracket outboard set up...... I will trade everything for a decent outboard of equal value... I also would like a Gil bracket...or a small marine diesel and drive unit 40 - 70 hp...the type in old sailboats etc... I welcome trades.... Outboard must be at least a 125... preferably 150 - 175 - 200..oil injection.. I dont like to mix gas...or a 4 stroke...lower hp is fine As far as cash goes make me a reasonable offer... I am the second owner of this boat and motor and it has been good but I am going to make some changes..I want the deck room and I want cheaper fuel economy.. I troll alot... I also hate kickers and want to troll with my main more... so thats why I am considering a diesel direct.. I like interesting projects so the diesel would be fun,,,and not my first conversion..this is a great parts set up for someone with 470 i/o power.....these parts are expensive as you all know....so if you have a 470 in your boat and an outboard laying around lets talk... I am located in Half Moon Bay, CA Thanks, Mike

Hi Mike and welcome to the site. I'm sure that if anyone needs your setup they will be in touch with you shortly. In the meantime don't forget to post some pics of the before, during, and after conversion. We love to see that stuff here on this site. Red skys at night..

sounds good
I have checked out this site for years....and finally joined....
I fish my v20 commercially on the north ca coast for salmon and in sf bay for halibut. I need to get this project done asap....I will get some pics up soon... I built an aluminum hard top for my v20 years ago and have basically changed everything around at one time or another....its all function not fasion so it's not the prettiest v20 you will see... If anyone needs a 470 or parts I have a shop full I will let go fairly cheap.... I'm working myself into a bind lately... thanks for the welcome note.... Mike
