    5.0GXi Fuel Problem

    This engine runs fine when primed with gas, but as soon as it's used up, it stalls and a no-start condition ensues. I'm assuming it's the fuel pump assembly, but could use some help. Any other possibility causes or things to consider first?

    Engine replacement and marinization

    This marking on the block, however is a complete mystery. I have one person saying it's a 351w and another who thinks it's a 302.

    Engine replacement and marinization

    Ok I think that worked. This is what's on the intake. I couldn't find any obvious casting marks on the block. Someone entered into this project and suggested that it might actually be a 302.

    Engine replacement and marinization

    1978 Ski Nautique 351c, hydro-locked with cracked heads and who-knows what else. Had two choices: $4,600 for a new engine or watch it rot in a field. Then, we found a way out. 351w from a Mustang and perfect for a rebuild. This thread will be about rebuilding and marinizing the engine...

    Are marine engine blocks unique

    78 Ski Nautigue. Engine failure this summer so we're planning a rebuild pending a good result with the magnaflux. If we do need a new engine, can I source any block or is a marine block itself fundamentally different?
