Believe it or not, there is a place in Wyoming, Advanced marine engines. The boat dealer where l work has used them before with good results. Although more expensive, quicksilver remans are always a good choice.

I'm in the middle of a repower myself on my 97 380 sunsport. I'm working with Tidewater Yacht Service in Baltimore. They were able to find me a CPO engine from Merc and saved me a few grand.

I replaced 7.4 Merc MPI's. First was refurb long-block in 2016 from perfprotech.com, runs great. Second in 2018, new engine LB from eagleenginesales.com and runs great. Find a reputable installer and have it delivered to them for a small fee. Don't let anyone buy your engine for you!

Look at the Mercury/Mercruiser site.

I would argue STRONGLY to get a real Mercruiser engine or rebuild from Merc. They DO have quality control and will honor their warranty unlike Eagle. I put one Eagle engine in and found the head remanufactured with epoxy or some non metal product after they leaked and ruined the engine. They offered me a $600 warranty claim for a $5000 engine, and couldn't beat them as it was in their fine print. Horrible company to do business with.
The trouble with boat suppliers, especially engines, is quality standards. There are no regulations governing engine rebuilding or remanufacturing in the boat business, so you need someone that you totally rely on.
Merc has always treated me great. Can call them, they warrant their part (but rarely needed), and provide good tech support.

I went with a private shop rebuild on starboard engine, it was in and out 5 (FIVE) times before they got it to run properly, apparently a crack in the supposedly magnafluxed block. It would start spraying steam through the PCV into the carb when it was put under load. Took forever to get it fixed, replaced the block eventually, was in the shop most of the summer. Then dropped a valve in the fresh port engine, rebuilt by the same guy, killed the head and block, this time went with a Mercruiser Reman and no problems since--- about a $12k education!

If you are totally repowering, be sure to put fresh water cooling on the engines. That is a major beef with me and the rec. boat industry. No engine should use raw water coolng.
