Can anyone use this before I put it on ebay? It's a Sherwood 0601 from a 5.8l Pro Boss GT-40. Mechanics F'd up and hit me for a new one, $600 down the drain for parts and labor and it wasn't even the problem. If I can get $250 out of it, I'm fine and I'll take care of the shipping cost. It works just fine. Just let me know.152351523615237

Head gasket. Went ahead and had a performance shop do a top end job on it. Runs
Like a top now.

Where were you earlier this week? I ordered a new one on Monday and it already arrived. If Hunter or nobody else takes it, I might take it just to have a spare.

Why did you order a new one? These can be rebuilt for $120.

I didn't, that's what they suggested, we don't have many marine mechanics here and everyone said the guy was a good mechanic. This is first inboard. I tried to tell the guy that I wanted my money back because he didn't fix the problem. Luckily my brother in law runs a performance shop and told helped me out. Just had to take it to his shop....3 1/2 hours away.

This one is beyond a rebuild. The previous owner did not do me any favors with it. I was lucky to get the number of seasons I got out of it. The housing never got tight to seal because only one bolt had enough thread to actually grab anything. The other two were for show.
