My suggestion is to calculate the total cost including new engine mounts, new controls, new gauges, new fuel tank(s) and system, and anything needed to couple the engine to the outdrive.
I think you'll find an 1986 Bayliner is not worth a whole lot and making such a large investment in it is not fiscally sound.
But, there are companies that do this type of changeover so call them and get quoes. |
