Hi my name is Brent Miller. I purchased a 1978 Correct Craft Mustang 17 with no motor. I have been trying to locate an engine (complete preferably, but am getting desperate). I believe the original engine is a Mercruiser 305. I assume reverse rotation. Please let me know if you have one reasonably priced or know of where one is at. I have been trying to get this running by spring but it looks like it will be another year if I can't find one soon....
THanks, Brent Miller brentmiller@zoominternet.net |

stock would have been a 302 ford reverse rotation motor most likely. ------------- http://www.correctcraftfan.com/diaries/details.asp?ID=756&sort=&pagenum=1&yrstart=1979&yrend=1979 - 79 nautique |

A 302 would have been the most common, but it also could have been a Chevy... doubtful it was a Mercruiser though. I think OMC was doing the Chevies for CC at that point. ------------- |

That would be correct. My 76 OMC. 
I know White Lake Marine had a mustang of that vintage with the 305 chevy in in a while ago. Obviously the 302 was much more common, but there were a few chevies. ------------- _____________ “So, how was your weekend?” “Well, let me see…sun burn, stiff neck, screwed up back, assorted aches and pains….yup, my weekend was great, thanks for asking.” |
