502 Mag to 525 EFI

Dear Bob:
I have a 2000 29 Fountain with a Mercuiser 502 Magnum that has been damaged by being frozen. I am getting ready to swap the motor and install a 2004 Mercury Racing 525EFI that I purchased which has been recently rebuilt. What concerns should I have with this motor swap? Is the wiring harness and mounting the same for both motors? Please provide me with any information you think would be helpful. Thanks!

to use? Thanks,

That has a lot to do with the fact that her father—the legendary Bob Teague, who established Teague Custom Marine in 1972—has been a regular attendee and sponsor of the popular event since it started as the HeatWave Poker Run in 1999.

TOE-IN OR OUT?

Dear Bob:
Can you explain the correct procedure for setting the alignment of the drives on a twin-engine boat? I would think that if it is not in correct alignment, you could be scrubbing off speed. On a car, there is a certain amount of toe-in, when the car starts moving, that position likely will change slightly. Is a boat the same? Does the procedure change with regard to the direction the props are turning?
Thanks!
