Is there any reference to a list of things to go over? I took off the carb. Probably want a rebuild kit. I took off the water pump, it's pretty shot. I took off the hoses, they were shot. So that's all pretty basic stuff. Now I'm coming up on installing the walter v drive. Looks like it just bolts right up. But I just went down to the boat, and I'm thinking well heck what if the v drive doesn't line up to the prop shaft. So I guess I'm looking for some advice or threads on steps to take when installing a motor. I dont think it would be an overhaul because I'm not getting into removing the heads. I really just want to fire it up in my garage just to see if it runs. But I dont want to mess anything up either. Any advice on going about a checklist or a I wish I would have did this thread?
My engine compartment is fairly big, but at the same time I'm trying to do everything I can so I dont wind up twisted like a pretzel working on something I could have done comfortably from my garage.
