    Alkylate fuel?

    dont confuse RON vs R+M/2 octane ratings. your E0 which is what you are calling Rec-90 is a 90 octane on the Ron+Mon/2 US scale. the EU uses only the RON scale

    look locally for plastic fabrication and sales. most companies that sell acrylic sheet also do heat forming, etc. many will advertise boat windshields, etc if they make windshields agree with Matt, many of the local glass shops that do Auto/Residential/Commercial will have a company or two...

    OMC copied the Mercruiser key hole for the cobra. Assuming test drills show your transom is rot free, get a complete long-tail and bolt it in.

    Oil Analysis for high-hour 4.5L 250 HP

    look at the rotating assemblies...... racing buddy of mine has a 2016 merc 6.2 with a damaged block..... the rotating assembly looks a lot like the GM SBC 377/383 rotating assembly. Not sure on the 4.5. I suspect the same bore/rod combination, just a slightly different stroke.
