If you can find a donor boat then it could be worth it. I suspect the bell
housing will bolt up. The coupler just bolts up to what is basically an
automatic flywheel so that should not be a problem. If I recall the inline
4 uses a front engine mount. Most of the stingrays I've looked at with v
engines have built up blocks on the inside on the inner stringers where the
side motor mounts bolt to the boat. Have you checked out the motor mount
situation? What ratio is your outdrive drive? If you have a sport interior
I can tell you the rear seat comes out easier than it looks and it's whole
lot easier to work on the engine with it out :-)

I'm not concerned at all with the labor aspect (my labor) or the parts,
the job would likely be completed with the use of an entire donor
boat... I just would like to know of someone who has done it to expand
on the finer points of the swap... bellhousing/flywheel/coupler, etc.

The Stingray is a great boat for some good speed - I only wish they
didn't fade so quickley...
