1979 Mercury outboard

[Kissdude]

I have a 1979 Mercury, 70 HP engine that I want to rebuild. Everything is there accept the cylinder block. Would anyone know where I could find a good used block for this motor?

Your best bet is probably to find a complete used engine, i'm sure if you buy just a block you'll be missing a ton of brackets and linkages that will be difficult/expensive to find on their own.
