I’m looking at a boat with twin 3.0 liter inline 4 engines with Alpha drives. The engines and drives will need replacing soon but I love the boat.
I notice that the 3.0 engines have a single point front motor mounts. They do not sit on or hang off of the stringers. There is just a small raised block glassed into the hull under the front of each engine. There is no stringer between the engines.
I’m thinking when they do need replacing, and depending on the spacing of the transom cutouts I would like to swap them for 4.3 V6 engines but I’ve never seen a single point front mount for a V6, or V8 for that matter.
Any suggestions, tips, leads ?
Thanks
