Half Sunk 1991 175 60deg Rebuild Slideshow, Now Running!
I decided to rebuild a locked up first year 175 60deg over the winter. I always wanted to run a 175 of one of these blocks. It went under in Sandy and sat for about a year. Most of the pics have some of my ramblings if you tap on them.

It lives after Hurricane Sandy did a number to it.
I feel like I saved this one from the "Metal Pile". It's a good thing cause I have been eyeballing this one for a while. I rarely see long term sinkers get torn down and rebuilt let alone when they get to a certain age. It's running nice, I haven't even set the timing yet but I'm sure it's pretty close for the idle. In person it has that nice fresh sound when the carbs are dialed in, the response is crisp and it just spits out the compression. Here are a couple clips Running.........

Looks good.
It might just be the pics but the silver on the big ends of those rods looks pretty shot. Might want to keep an eye on it.Quartershot T-3R 15" 3.5L E-Tec 1.62 Sportmaster

Thanks for the heads up. I guess it's the pic quality because they are fine. Now the 5 I chucked were trash! Originally Posted by baja200merk
