I take it you have 7.4L/454 gas engines? Or are they diesels? Why do you have to remove the engines, what's wrong with them?

How many hours on the engines?
Are these raw water or fresh water cooled (coolant) engines? What about the manifolds; raw water or fresh water cooled? How old are they?

What's wrong with that? I have two 1983 454's still running fine!

Ya, no problem with my '89s either but I don't have a chocolate shake going on. If I did though, I'd still try to get more years out of them by checking to make sure the issue wasn't just an upper end problem before I went through the time and expense of complete replacements.
