I got my boat back from mechanic yesterday and yes it did have a blown head gasket letting water get in it. Only one cylinder is bad though. Bad I mean rusted with what looks like a piece of the gasket in it. Is rebuilding and having it bored out the best (cheapest) way or just getting a new powerhead? And do I have to go with same HP or can I go smaller for cost?

Re: rebuild or new powerhead

i just rebuilt my 90hp complete kit for 3cyl was 660.0 that included main bearings which i was told most marinas dont replace i was fortunate with the machine work because my father owns one ive seen powerheads as low as 1450.00 with a one year warranty
