My port standard rotation engine has a groove in the cylinder #7. It is a single groove about 1/16" deep that stops about 2" short of the top of the cylinder wall. I pressure tested at 100 PSI before I pulled the heads today. I don't know if it can be rebuilt or not.
Now I am thinking maybe I should go for a long block or short block. I think that the heads can be saved, but I am not sure about the block. Any experience with remanufactured engines? Reputable sellers on the net? It might be cheaper to just buy a long block, but I have no experience with this.
Any idea of what it will cost to get the engine out of the boat? It is a port engine and my cabin door is on the starboard side, of course.
