Volvo 302 aq 190a Buy or not

[robjen1019]

Looking at a boat with the aq190a motor, its a 302 ford block. I have heard bad things about the 3.7 ford, and was wondering if this is a good motor to have. The price is pretty low and comes with the outdrive.

Thanks

DO NOT BUY IT.
They were only used for 2 years. No parts. Things like exhaust manifolds are gone, NLA, don't exist. Not even in aftermarket. No body makes them.
