Default B230 Engines for Sale

I have for sale Two complete engines. Engines completely rebuilt in 2015 with New Custom Manufactured Pistons and bored cylinders. They ran great when removed in February. Engines were pickled for storage. 330 hours on one engine, 458 hours on the other. Price is $1,500 for each motor. These are Marine Engines so they are the AQ151 engines but the block is fresh water cooled.
These engines have the B230 engine block with several improvements to give them higher horsepower. They feature the 531 cylinder head which breathes better than the more standard head. It also has a forged crankshaft, special pistons and beefier connecting rods. They are rated at 146 horsepower.

Interesting about the forged rods , The old B23 had forged rods and crankshaft!
