    1988 3.0 and 1994 3.0 swap

    Not sure but think the 1988 might be a 2.5 maybe @Bondo might know for sure As for the 4.3 it will burn a slight bit more fuel because it weights more then the 3.0 So long as you stay away from WOT it should be fine

    5.0gi PEFS stalls and deceleration

    Lets go back to the motor. Was the motor bought as a complete "new/reman" long block or something else? I'd like to see the motor shaking, or at least some still pics? Use a straight edge on crank pulley and see if it aligns with the others. No matter how it shakes it should not loose the...

    Fuel vent issues 4.5L 250hp Mercruiser

    While those things can cause issues, it's more then likely how the hoses were run, or the size of the fill hose. Look at the fill and vent lines paying close attention to how they route from tank to fill/vent https://www.boats.com/on-the-water/modern-gasoline-fuel-systems-on-boats/
