Beware the 3.7 Mercruiser Four banger.
There is no automotive bellhousing that will fit it! it is a weird engine that takes a 460 ford head.

Or I guess I could learn to pour bearings and bop along with the original 35HP plant. Wooden wheels! May run those on my AH car. LOL

When I was a kid in the 1950's I helped my uncle rebuild one of those poured babbitt rod bearing engines while in the truck. He cleaned most of the babbit out and used a leather strap to make rod bearings. It worked. I can not remember how long it lasted, however it did last the weekend we used the truck to haul cotton to the gin.
The good ole days. Rick Cates Canyon, TX |
