470/488 Mercruiser parts

I have 2 complete engines sitting on the ground(3-4 years)and enough parts to rebuild another. I kept them running for 10+ years and one has about 100+ hours on rebuild. I imagine they’re locked up from sitting outside. They are 460 Ford heads on a 4cyl aluminum block…come get them if you’re interested. Send me a PM cause they are going to the scrap metal place otherwise. I hate to do it but my kids are scared I’m going to drop dead and they have to get rid of more junk than Fred Samford had.

Also two mercruiser (Alphas I believe) going with the engines to the scrap yard…I’m a hoarder and this is a big step for me.

I’m letting go…and it’s tough. The Egyptians got nothing on me:

Been there done that, need to do it again!

$43 for todays load. I would’ve traded my left nut for the stuff I dropped in the salvage yard today…20 years ago.

I know it’s a long shot but what scrape yard did you take your motors? Just found this post and can use some of the parts. Thanks.

Sorry dude…that place clears the stuff while you’re unloading into a waiting truck…efficient.

Here you go WaterTaxi1, I couldn’t send pictures on the PM:

I sent you a PM as well. Let me know what you want so I can continue my therapy. I even got the speede sleves for the BS water pump repair and the impellers as well.
