Merc Cruiser 5.0L or 5.7L wanted

[HPORT]

I'm in need of a standard rotation 5.0 or 5.7L Vortec Merc Cruiser engine for a 1999 225 PY. Short block to a complete drop in, with very low hours. The 5.0L we have froze when the shop heat failed yesterday, cracking both sides of the block badly.

If anyone knows of a good source for rebuilt or used with low hours it would be greatly appreciated.

The shop heat is fixed.

It could be possible to repair what you have. If not new long blocks are about as reasonable as a rebuilt anymore with a better warranty. If I can help you out or give some advice feel free to pm me.
