Thread: Reusing Auto Engines.

I would suggest choosing a motor renound for high mileage/reliability. Unfortunately this generally means old inefficient heavy slugs.
Marine engines have a pretty hard life compared to the same engine mounted in a vehicle,there is no coasting or downhill just constant load.
Also not usually the option to walk home.....

I am not up with the play on modern engines enough to recommend anything but will say make sure it is well powered,always better economy/safety to have power in reserve.
