Hi,
I have a 31 foot cabin cruiser with 2 x 230 HP inboard Mercruisers. These have reached the end of their lives. I'm considering purchasing two GM vortec engines to replace them and then bolting on the accessories and transmissions. As it's a duel engine boat, one of the engines turns counter clockwise and one clockwise (forget which is which). This means that one of the GM engines will need to be converted to reverse rotation. Has anyone has any experience with this process? I know there's different methods of doing this and some require a new cam and others do not. I'm not quite sure on which method would be best or even possible for the GM engines. Any help would be great.
Thanks, Mark
