I just picked up a nice project boat with a blown Force 120HP. Before you say don't waste your time or money let me say that I just want to try my hand at a rebuild and in my opinion a Force would be the easiest way to start....since there are so many blown Forces out there and they're so basic.
Anyways, I have the powerhead completely torn down and ready to be taken to be machined. I did notice in cyl#3 a small pit (possibly a hole) and rust "stain" on the cylinder wall near the head. Would that make the block junk or is that fixable?
On a side note I did also find a brand new 99 powerhead reasonably priced. My question is if anybody knows if this would be compatible. I cross referenced the 2 and the exhaust adapter bracket and the 2 gaskets and they're the same numbers.
