Toying with a idea of upgrading my motor. I currently have a 1996 Monterey 230 Explorer with a 4.3 l Chevy vortex engine. Thinking of upgrading to a (auto) 5.7 vortex from 1996 or 97. The new engine in from a auto and would need to be retro fitted for marine application.
1. Is it cost effective to fit necessary equipment to transform auto to marine engine?
2. Will the boat take a 5.7 with minor changes to motor mounts?
3. If I move forward what would be a reasonable price to ask for my 1996 4.3 l vortex engine that runs flawlessly?
