| No recent marine engine has been built with a reverse rotation. I'm pretty
certain that no V6 reverse rotation was ever built. And I think it's safe
to assume he will be transfering the ignition, carb, alt, and other bolt on
accessories form the cracked marine engine. |

| If you are just planning a long block swap then the only manditory thing you
need to do is to remove all the cast (freeze) plugs and replace them with
brass ones. The iron ones will rust out in short order if you do not. I
forget but there may be some in the rear behind the flywheel. The rear cam
plug does not need to be brass. The cam is different as well but that is
not as much of an issue. You can swap cams if you want but that's a bit
more work and you'll have to get a cam change gasket set. Sort of a chore
on chevys as you have to loosen the front of the oil pan to get the cam
chain cover off. "eppinger" <eppinger.2mps1e@news.boatbanter.com> wrote in message |

| Reverse Rotation Marine Cam! and possibly whatever changes you have to
do to your ignition depending on if it's a distributor or some of the
new distibutorless multi coil technology. |
