Ok, I have an 89 Sea Ray that the motor decided to spin a main bearing and crack the block.

Instead of finding another motor, I found an 89 Larson with the same motor/outdrive that I will use as a donor.

I need the alignment tools for this. Not sure which ones I need.

Will need this pretty soon as I will be starting this project within a month. Gotta wait until a bit of this Wisconsin snow melts and the temps get a bit warmer as this will be an outside project!

Thanks!

Thanks,
Is that the only tool I need? I'll be swapping the entire deal, engine to the prop.
Yes. You won’t need the transom assembly unless it’s in better shape since they are the same. But it would give you a good idea of transom condition if you do

I will be swapping the transom assembly too, the donor is in better shape.
So, with that, any additional tools?
