I'd appreciate some idea of what it costs to do a top quality rebuild on 5 L engines. Sounds like one uses a Big Bleeping Hammer to get the risers off. How much are new manifolds/risers? We probably won't buy the boat when we find out! Thanks for your help for a newbie. Jon C.

"Bondo, does it matter in the marine world if the engines are "like out in the open" or "jammed under a salon floor"...regarding costs to do some things? As I said I am almost up to 2 grand and I did this myself"

That's got Nothing to do with the Removal, Reinstallation, Nor the Accessorial components....

"Thanks to y'all for help

"Thanks to y'all for help with Crusader rebuild. The boat is here in Mexico; I will have the engines removed at the local boat yard; they will ride to CA in our utility trailer, and be rebuilt there. The seller bought the boat (a 1984) 7 y rs. ago, it did NOT have hour meters!! I offering based on the probable need to rebuild. We'll have it surveyed in 2 weeks."
