What are the flat rate labor hours to pull a 454 with a v-drive from a 1981 18' Century Arabian, swap parts to a Jasper 454 long block, and reinstall it?
Generally access to V drive engines is pretty darn easy with the engine being in the middle of the boat and all. Most ski boats I've done engine exchanges to i can usually get the motor out in an hour or two. Install is about the same. swapping everything over, assuming a bare long block can take a day or so. 16 hours tops and I think I'm being generous.
