Hi everyone. Thanks for the answers to my is this a good engine price question. Forrest noted that he could not put a 351 in his 16'.
I do not have the 351 to measure for fit in a 1966 18'. Do any of you have 351 Windsors installed in your 18'?
Although I assume that while restoring the boat, I could cut the stringers and lower them by an inch or so, I would prefer not to have to do this. I also don't know what that would do to the OMC sterndrive performance.
As I need to buy this engine if I am going to, your experience with this is needed. The engine is in FL and I am in NC.
Thanks,
Alex.
