My brother discovered he had a cracked block on his Vortec 4.3 engine so it needs to be replaced. Can we use a 4.3 block from a Chevy 2-10 or 1500 to rebuild or is there something special about the marine engine block that an automotive Vortec doesn't have?
I have an '81 Evanrude 15 H.P. engine,I took off the flywheel and the plate with the magneto on it so I could change a worn throttle control cam.I think I may have thrown the whole works out of sync.How do I check it and get every thing back to where it should be befor I reinstall the flywheel?
