Mercruiser Repower

Hopefully no one has to swap a block, but if they do there is now another option.

I'd be curious how much a long block costs compared to Jasper

I just did a search and couldn’t find any pricing, very curious.

I would pay triple just to not have a Jasper engine in my boat.

@Dude_Himself , that doesn’t look like a Quicksilver engine.

That's the part number from the new Quicksilver page. Appears to be the same as the re-man engine though, huh?

Willhound

I think the story said the remans were going away because of supply of available blocks so they went this way. Makes sense  it might be the same part number maybe?

The price is definitely about $4k higher than last time I checked.
