    To fuel filter or not. 3.0

    So why are you answering again? It's just that this agro bullshit detracts from actual information trying to be gleaned from the conversation. Just because you think you have a full understanding of something doesn't mean someone else doesn't want understand more......

    To fuel filter or not. 3.0

    My plan was for the big micron filter but I would like to make sure this is kosher as every used 3.0l I looked at that was visible hooked to a filter did have more noticeable vertical scoring on the cylinder walls, almost as if it was fuel starved. Figured I'd ask all y'all. Perhaps I read too...

    Every other crate engine comes with water separator. Why is that?

    Sorry I don't know what is wrong with me. I should have been more specific. These are just the general repower statements, regardless enough for me to ask y'all. Here's a picture of the quicksilver repower literature that came with the crate motor. #2 on the bottom of the page

    2.00 ratio Alpha one gen 2

    ALL I have been asked to look at in the field has been a combination of pre-alphas made from mismatched drive parts, gimble ring to gimble housing and numerous other combinations and modifications. In fact I have NEVER seen an unmodified pre-alpha and it would be hard to call them their true...

    To fuel filter or not. 3.0

    Seems some documents state not to put a fuel water separator filter on a 3.0l mercruiser, is that correct? Do they really just want you to rely on the mechanical fuel pump filter? Is it just that the mechanical fuel pump is not robust enough to draw through it? I'd hate to starve the engine of...

    2.00 ratio Alpha one gen 2

    Well that is the problem they don't help anyone and upgrading/modifying is the the only option. So really they are of only one model, limited life. If you gotta ask which "pre-alpha" you already have a problem....
