I was told by my mechanic that these are not very good engines. Does
anyone
how any comments? Are they difficult to rebuild? Expensive?

I currently have two in a Carver. Just bought rebuilds from Jasper. You
can buy parts fro these from auto as they are just a Ford 460 cut in half.
460 pistons, lifters,heads,( the standard 460 head has to have a hole
drilled to be used).
They are strong and are one of the most fuel efficient engines in their
class. If you do have to replace blocks then they are very expensive. Hope
this helps
