Quicksilver Partially Dressed Crate Engines
Quicksilver partially dressed crate engines are value-packed alternatives to purchasing a complete new engine if the engine to be repaired has internal damage, but the dress components are in good condition. They are major assemblies that include a new (not rebuilt, remanufactured or reconditioned) long block, as well as the fuel delivery and ignition components required for a high-quality major repair. The partial engine assembly is completed by reusing many components from the engine being repaired, or those components must be purchased separately.
The foundation of every Quicksilver crate engine is a new iron block cast to Quicksilver's specifications and designed expressly for marine duty. Thicker castings ensure quieter operation and better durability in saltwater when compared to a standard automotive block. They feature Black-X composite valves that contribute to a 42 percent reduction in valve wear compared to traditional stainless steel valves with hardened seats, and smooth-flowing cylinder heads that deliver added performance.
Some crate engines feature modern Multi-Port Fuel Injection (MPI) offering easier starts, improved fuel economy, and snappier throttle response. Quicksilver crate engines are universal power upgrades for Mercury MerCruiser sterndrive and inboard applications, and they're adaptable to other brands of sterndrives and inboards regardless of make. Select the engine desired for your build.
