Trojan Boat Forum

Ken the reason I am considering rebuilding both is that the boat took on water and i am uncertain if the water got into the motor. One is was already being disassembled before I got it so I figured there was a reason the other one is still together but the stringer under the motor is soft and the glass that is covering that stringer is broken so I figured I should just remove both and atleast do the heads, exhaust manifolds and carb plus I figured it would be a good to do the clutches on the trans and replace the stuffing boxes with the newer sealed units I was told I would need to do this to beable to insure it.

maybe I should do some thing different what do you think?????

I am planning on removing the motors in about 2 weeks so if there is any other options please let me know.

Thanks

If you are going to pull them both out and you are uncertain if they went under water than you should replace them. I would replace them both with rebuilt motors. I have had good luck with Doug Russell Marine in Wocester and 1-800-runs -likenew. But you can also find some local deals if you look around a bit. You should get one with a decient warrenty. You will have to put on your intake manifold and other basic engine parts. But I would stick with a 318 if that is what you have.
