Take your time, the right one will come along. I'd stay away from the ficht engine one.

I had delivered the one from Surry, VA delivered on July 22, then was off on vacation for a week. 1986 V20 Cuddy - 170 stern drive. When I got back, I dove in and started cleaning it up. Fired right up, ran fine... Then I noticed some weeping between the riser and manifold and a faint steam coming out the exhaust. The PO had cleaned up the exhaust elbow and replaced the gasket - so, being cautious, I removed the exhaust manifold and elbow. The elbow has a hole where one of the hold down bolts goes through. So, that's getting replaced. The aluminum exhaust manifold is in pretty good shape except for the #4 exhaust port is slightly eroded. I'm replacing that as well...
The 4" heat exchanger looks fine. I'm also replacing all hoses. As far as the hull - No signs of damage, no bottom paint. |
