So the engine is a Mercruiser 305 from a stern drive. Thunderbolt Ignition. Electric timing and a moderate aftermarket intake. Model is MCM. I also have two other engines that may go into it next year. One im rebuilding right now is called a black scorpion. It hit 750 hours and i think it would be perfect fit. The engine that i put in it runs so good its unbelievable. I broke my throttle cable onthe first lake test but already got a new one. Routed my shift cable and throttle cable differently. The story behind this boat is I found it sitting next to a dairy. I paid 400 dollars for it. It had all interior pieces and the engine was in pieces. Someone took out the merc 350. I had an extra welder sitting around and i sold it for 3000 and turned around and bought this 305 that has now 70 hours on it. I put that in the boat and had David Telling shop do the alignmemt to the engine. My stringers were still good and the only reason why is because they had stacked bags of cement and yard trash inside the boat. Someone had also shot the window out with a shotgun. Trust me when i first got the boat home mywife wanted to kill me. Never buy a boat for 400 dollars and bring it home while your father in law is visiting. It takes arguing to a whole new level. Lmao but i can go on for days. But thats the story ina short version.
