Can anyone give me a strong recommendation
for a company who rebuilds Mercury outboards
so they're like new? In my case it would be a 60 hp.

If were only talking about a 60 horse and your not going to be doing any modifications. Guess we also need the year of the 60 hp.
I would talk to rickracer on the board, he can get you a remanufactured engine with a warranty. I also think Merc has remans too direct from them, not sure if they offer any discount but you can try.

If this is for a racing application, then I would say your area would determine where you would want to have it done, but since it is a 60 hp shipping should not be all that much, just put it on a 3 x 3 pallet.

DO NOT EVER USE BLACKBIRD INDUSTRIES.

DO A QUICK SEARCH ON BLACKBIRD

THEY WERE BANNED FROM THIS SITE, AND HAVE BEEN BLACK LISTED HERE IN THE PAST.

Put Blackbird into the search and read through some of the CRAP he pulls, somebody sued him and won. Because he sold the guy junk, and pawned it off as rebuilt.

He's right, they suck. They use used parts and charge for new etc.
