I am interested in finding out what I should expect to pay to have the top half of my 1984 350 260 hp 5.7L mercruiser I/o rebuilt, can anyone give me an idea? I live in New York, thanks
If you are talking about the upper gearcase (driveshaft housing) new alpha one units sell for $2,500 CDN = $1,560 US. Rebuilt units are worth approximately $1,700 CDN = $1,060 US with a rebuildable core.
Joker,What exactly do you need?Heads,intake and carb?I just went through this.I also live in N.Y.Id be happy to help any way I can.Just need to know what you need.Jonny
wheels 4,mrmerc thanks for the replies. I was told the heads are possibly cooked, so I believe <br />I need to replace the heads. not really sure the cost of whole job?
Joker you can take your heads to a machine shop to have them checked out.They will be able to tell you if they are warped or if any valves are burnt.Did you get this engine real hot?What caused the heads to cook?Heads are not to expensive to have redone or you could just replace them as there not that expensive any more.Cast heads have really come down in price the last few years.Hope I helped a little.Jonny
