| I used Gilpens before they went through a change.They closed for a while. Don't know if they still do marine, Last guy I used was at Marine Sevices, I think. Been a while but awesome job on a 6 cyl. for about 110.00 BUT you need to have the pistons so they know the bore. I got mine from Keith at watermans and went with Sierra's. The best IMO Want more info, PM me. D. |
