A buddy offered me $600 cash after he seen it...    I'll get it inspected and drive it till i don't like it and sell it....   If I do end up liking it then I will swap it....

stuff the 2.5 with mercruiser 3.0 parts to be different.

My thoughts exactly use 350 pistons to help with compression.

The 3.0l and 2.5 blocks are of the same casting.
So are the crank 3.0l is cut for 3.60" throw while the 2.5l is cut 3.00" throw.
4.00 bore go 0.060" o/s and use the 2.5l (longer rods) and get 350 pistons with a 1.25" pin height to compensate for longer stroke and 6.00 rod length.

Then turbo to the moon with this setup and fuck with people when they see you pop the hood. :yes:

Everyone knows that Porno Red is the most desirable interior color for ANY 80's vehicle

Robb had one, and sir I regret to inform you that you will need to age that tampon for 6-12 hours to reach the correct shade of bloody tampon burgundy.
