yeah i know, but thats just where the numbers fell.

All the 5.7's seem to be 0F601000 and up

Hey ........I'm on spring break from teaching school , so my daily routine consists of at least a couple a day just to unwind. I never seen the Gen V engine til you pointed it out either :)

Re: Mercruiser 1996 5.7 lx engine wanted
 

Thank u guys for everything, can u weld a cracked block

Re: Mercruiser 1996 5.7 lx engine wanted
 

Yes , and No.
Where is the crack at pokes?
Got a pic?
It isn't advisable , but I have done it before. I have also used JB Weld in the intake valley on a crack. I never trusted it , but it is still in the boat running after 4 yrs.

Re: Mercruiser 1996 5.7 lx engine wanted
 

The crack is in the intake valley and where head meets upwith blockim just going to get another one thanks

Re: Mercruiser 1996 5.7 lx engine wanted
 

Good Idea ,
if it is that close to the block deck it more than likely warped the deck also.:wink_thumbup:

Are you still looking for a complete 5.7lx motor?
