Remanufactured 4.3L Pre-Vortec (1986-1992) Marine Base Engine
Remanufactured 4.3L Pre-Vortec Marine Base Engine (replaces years 1986-1992)
This is a completely remanufactured 4.3L/262 c.i. Pre-Vortec marine base engine. This engine will replace those 4.3L marine engines used in Mercruiser, Volvo Penta, Crusader, Indmar, Marine Power, and other applications between the years 1986-1992. This engine has a steel timing cover timing cover , 12 intake manifold bolts, does not have a balance shaft, and accepts a mechanical fuel pump*
Our Remanufactured engines are completely remanufactured to the original blueprints and exact OEM specifications, and are tested to original equipment standards. Note that ALL of our remanufactured marine engines are bored, decked, and blueprinted on a CNC machine making these units some of the best in the industry. Read more about our remanufacturing process in the ad below.
*some of this will only accept an electric fuel pump. In that case, an electric fuel pump conversion kit will be provided with the engine at no charge.

Our Remanufactured Engines
With our 40 years in the engine business we have learned over years what parts and processes work the most effectively to produce a quality unit. With that information we have a Premiere Multi-Step Method that we use to remanufacture our engines.
Only the Best Blocks:
- We start by selecting only the "healthiest" blocks. No cracks, no rust, no signs of abuse, no signs of salt water use.
- We completely disassemble the blocks and vigorously clean them along with the cylinder heads and crankshafts. We use a thermal cleaning process which includes baking them in an oven to remove core material and running them through a stainless steel shot machine to clean them to machinable metal.
- We then demagnetize the engine blocks before machining them on our CNC machine to insure precise OE specifications.
