Hi guys. It's been a while since I've been on here. I have a 4.3L Yamaha that has bit the dust. I searched on here and turned up some good info, but I still have some questions for anyone who has some answers. I'm a complete newb when it comes to this stuff, so don't be afraid to elaborate on your answers.
I read on here that the right vintage 4.3L Vortec would work to replace it. However, my boat mechanic said that it would be pretty expensive to do that because none of the accessories would bolt up to the engine and would need all new brackets to make it work.
What year model engine should I be looking for? Boat model is 1991.
What is interchangeable between the engines accessory wise? Would I have to get different brackets for everything or would all of it bolt up?
Basically, I just want to get something in it to get it running as cheaply as possible and then sell it. I'm tired of this headache. I'll then look for something with a Merc or Volvo in it. Thanks in advance.
