Hey, don't be picking on Rod, I thought his post was very responsive.

I feel bad, I'm the idiot that was too lazy to remove the drain plugs and
poor Rod is catching grief for trying to help me out.

I've concluded that trying to buy a bare block and transfer the crankshaft
and pistons is probably being too cheap - probably better to just buy a
reman shortblock.

Thanks to all for your replies.

Have a great week.

Define "a while".

Counter rotating engines are standard in just about every twin engine
inboard boat I have seen.

You must not have seen too many.

I have owned two different tournament ski boats that used counter
rotating
engines.

I agree that it would be unusual in an I/O configuration, but it only
takes
a minute to check and can save a tremendous amount of headache and
expense
if he happens to have one.
