I have been offered a pair of 454 1978 crusader engines they seem to be identicle to mine a 1979 version. both out of chris craft. the 78 is a 41' sf. mine is a 36' sf. <br />My engines run good very strong but a rebuild is in the near future. advice on the pros and cons is appreciated. <br />If I do pick up these engines then I will rebuild them however the cost of rebuilding these engines professionally weather they are mine or these other engines is the same. <br />what are running used big blocks worth? <br />and is it worth storing for 4 or 5 years (estimated time to rebuild mine will probably have 2200 hrs)<br />thanks<br /><br />seagirl
