broken starter mount

Postby roctheboat » Sun Sep 06, 2015 6:32 pm

I have a 1996 excel 19 with the 4.3L mercruiser, it runs excellent the problem I have is that the tab on the block where the starter motor mounts sheared off, has anyone had this problem before or know how to fix it? I managed to rig up some 1/4 threaded rod to help hold the starter but it is not a long term fix and it beds and grinds then. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
