Re: where can I get a replacement mercruiser decal like this?

thanks I appreciate it and will call them and look into it.. however I know they still make the 350 cube 260hp engine and I would assume this is ia newest version of the 260hp mercruiser 350 v8 engine.

but I'll check with them, thanks!

Not even close to the newest edition of a SBC 350. You still have flat lifters, and it gets better from there.

I know exactly what I have. I was saying the part number he gave is probably for some of the newer 350's....and isn't the exact decal I'm wanting.

The part number you have been given, 37-13723-12, is for exactly what you want, not for anything newer or older... your 1984, 350cu in, 260hp, V8 Mercruiser.....

And if you still don't trust us, look at the attachment.. It includes the year, part number and even a picture of your decal...

Why are you trying to bite the hands that feeds you?

I'm not! I will contact them but I honestly doubt thats it because they don't make it anymore..therefore all of the ones they do make probably fall under that part number......justa guess tho but like I said I will def. call them and maybe get them to take a picture of it bc I doubt thats it.

but if so I owe you guys big time.

Also I think this is the most helpful forum I've EVER been involved in.....and I have many years of corvette investigation and restoration along with my other projects and this forum and members are awesome!

I just got a little miffed that someone didn't read the posts then butts in with a know it all attitude telling me I don't know about my engine etc.. when I was talking about the dang decal..

any thanks guys and I will give that place a call!

That part number is for the decale you have. Merc doesn't just change throw a different part at a number when it goes NLA, that would be foolish.
If you can find that part number, it WILL be the right part.
You guys have to stop making up your own rules for things.

Ok, what site did that drawing come from? and it'll take a chance on it and order it but I still think it said 82-86 but anyway I'll order one from whatever site you got that drawing from. let me know thanks man

but look here..this is what I've seen 86 models decals look like and that site says that part number is good for 82-86

http://www.boattrader.com/listing/1986-SEA-RAY-250-Sundancer-90105478

and thats a 86 and that is not my decal.

here is another 86 http://www.strongsmarine.com/sitecontent.cfm?contentID=49&boatID=152&manufacturer=36

here is a decal like mine on ebay... this is what i'm after but a new one http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Merc...74323QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW#ebayphotohosting

Ok.. .we have a trust issue here....

First site: That is a 1986 boat, not a 1986 engine, it's a 1987 engine!
Second site: Same thing!
E-bay picture: The part number we gave you is that decal.....

What do we have to do to convince you? :mad:

What site did I get my info from.... Not a site... It came on a CD, from MERCRUISER THEMSELVES!!!

Shish!

Re: where can I get a replacement mercruiser decal like this?

ok, i was wrong then sorry just wanting to make sure before i spend 56 bucks for the wrong thing yanno?

plus i'm an old fart i'm 58 and not good on computers so it takes me a long time going from site to site etc.

ok which one would you order from this site? http://www.marinepowerservice.com/B...h.cfm?search_partNbr=1372312&op=37 - 13723 12

or this site http://www.dougrussell.com/partscat...,31,34,9,21,26,1,22,27,35,36,29,28,17,3,4,2,7

both are thesame right? just one cheaper than the other? or is one site more trustworthy than the other and worth the extra bucks.

also how in the hell did you know that was an 87 motor in that 86 boat?? jsut curious

If they both have the same number, they should be the same part....

Cheers,

Chris.......
It's the decal... Those were 1987 decals....

Re: where can I get a replacement mercruiser decal like this?

Seeing that one is $56 and one is $28 I'll go with the $28 one.

one ? though, I noticed that this site I'll list below and the drawing you listed thats on a CD say they have the same number of quanity in the "Qty Req. " field...what's up with that? so that Qty Req. field isn't what they place really has in stock?

http://www.dougrussell.com/partscat...,31,34,9,21,26,1,22,27,35,36,29,28,17,3,4,2,7

just found that odd but anyway I have one on order :)

Re: where can I get a replacement mercruiser decal like this?

That is the quantity used for each package (engine)... You require one decal...
Qty Req=1.

You'll see from that same drawing that the Qty Req for the hose is 2 and the hose clamp is 4....
