Inliners International Forums General Discussion Engines MERCRUISER 292 ENGINES

Are Mercruise Engines worth anything for hotrodding? Just curious, I saw these on ebay and like the valve & side covers, but don't think I'd pay $1000 for one. Unless there's a reason to?

That's not a 292 in that ebay auction.
165hp is a 250. Check motor mount bolt holes vs fuel pump location.
The bits and pieces come up once in while.

I put a Mercruiser 250 in a '75
Chevy pickup with a Edelbrock
carb and headers and it runs pretty
good
