Default Re: motors age

Ok the s/n is 5489350 which makes it between a 80-81 according to that chart.

The trim and tilt is the one big cylinder with remote pump. the polt pattern on the heads looks like yours bigshrimpin.

Cthe motor possibally be a late 79 since the date on the starter is 4 12 1979?

Are there any pros or cons to these age motors? Any lil tricks i can do to make them better. make it last longer? I have found the article about removing the idle spark module. will be doing that directly
