wow and sheesh how's the engine bay looking?

same here for a 2012 challenger 180 SE

Looks awsome!

Still available?

And the saga continues I ended up swapping the 2011 motor for a 2005 motor with a date 06/2005 this way everything lines up in my boat 2011 was a saltwater use motor and even though @ski-d00 really helped out explaining how to drill a hole to line everything up I did not feel confident enough...

It’s what they’re calling the locating pin that little circle? so the rest of it is behind? I guess I’ll pull tomorrow after work and take a look

Those six bolts I’ll prob need new ones though right ? I remember reading that they’re stretch bolts Which pin am I trying to clear? Do you happen to have any pics from any of them that you’ve done?

I appreciate the help I’ll prob give the motor back to the guy and try to find one that fits as I’m definitely not skilled enough to drill holes any help on which years will be a better fit? I tried to look for a newer motor because I didn’t want the hollow valve stems that’s what caused...

It’s like super paper thin on the pto cover I’m 99 percent sure it came from this engine when you look at both in person it matches almost 100 percent Can gaskets split?

The gaskets actually line up perfectly i tried to mirror the pics so you can see i cleaned up a little the gaskets after

can’t seem to figure out how to align the timing mark with the crank bearing Also just trying to turn the crank with a monkey wrench but after a full circle it seems to me it’s on the right

and the only way to know what year crank it is is by pulling the motor apart?

so weird... it came out of a 2011 ski I don't see why the guy would lie and put on a wrong nameplate, but this should bolt up to my boat? do you think I should buy the PTO housing or can I just use mine?

this is from my boat for reference.
