This came off the Starliner I bought last summer. I am either 2nd or 3rd owner.
Came from Michigan, barn stored, same family for multiple decades. Was OEM/factory rigged/installed on the boat at the Checkmate factory in 1990.
I ran compression when I bought it and all holes were within 2 or 3 lbs. This is one of the low compression motors from the factory and hence nearly bullet proof and why it's still in one pc. As is I got 67 GPS out of it on my 21' open bow w/more left w/additional set up work.
It has never been down and heads have never been off.
It is BOX STOCK including the still operational VRO. Starts, shifts, idles as new.
I installed a new stator last fall and has maybe an hour on it.
I haven't had the time to do it but, if you buffed and waxed the paint, it would pass as new. All graphics on the cowling are still there and in excellent condition.
The gear case would need painted but that's it.
So as is, a killer, low dollar, museum pc tractor motor for your basser or family boat. Orrrrrrrr........, 2.7 heads, gut the air box, big bore carbs and have a 260+ HP sleeper.
Once the check cash's, it's your choice.
I love this motor, especially being orig on the museum pc Checkmate but I had a 3.3 hydrid on a stand begging to be put in the game.
Comes w/a new VRO tank, 23" 4 blade stainless Shooter and a powerhead cover and all the help you want.
$3500.
