Remanufactured Marine Engines

What differentiates a Marine Engines 4 Less remanufactured engine versus the competition?

We produce our engines in our own manufacturing facility. This leads to many benefits for the end user, including: competitive pricing, expert customer service and technical support, quality parts and precision machining, and knowledgeable production staff.

Unlike most of our competitors, we provide our engines at competitive pricing direct to you - the consumer. Instead of purchasing engines in bulk from a large engine producer and having to mark them up, we build our own engines from start to finish cutting out any middle men. This allows us to undercut the competition on in-house produced new and remanufactured units. By producing our own engines this allows us to provide you with much better customer service and technical support than the competition. From telling you exactly where in the production process your engine is to explaining how to time an engine over the telephone, our team members are here to help you in the engine replacement process. 

And finally, our production team is small (about 15 people in total) which guarantees that you are getting an engine that is built with the knowledge that is required to produce a quality and trustworthy engine. We aren’t a mass engine producer, and we pride ourselves on that fact. Quality over quantity is a strong component of our mission statement.

Quality over Quantity

Marine Engines 4 Less provides only Remanufactured marine engines. What is the difference between a remanufactured and rebuilt engine?

Rebuilt Engines: To recondition by cleaning, inspecting and replacing severely worn or broken parts. Serviceable parts are reused within the manufacturer's acceptable wear limits.

Remanufactured Engines: To make as close to new as possible. Wearable parts are automatically replaced. All core material is closely inspected and checked against original equipment specifications for correct dimensional tolerances. Replacement parts are new and made in the same production process as original equipment.

Testing is performed to manufacturer specifications and original production standards. Choose for yourself, but know that Marine Engines 4 Less will only provide completely remanufactured engines — or any of our other remanufactured components — and that you can drive away from your technician's shop with confidence if you have an Marine Engines 4 Less engine in your Boat.

How can I be sure that the engine provided is a marine unit?

While similar, marine engines are a completely different animal than automotive engines. Marine engines use stainless steel fire ring head gaskets, brass or stainless steel freeze plugs, hypereutectic (where available) pistons, and, most importantly, a high torque marine camshaft.

The most important difference is the camshaft and the torque that it provides. Think about it. When you drive your car down the highway, you’re consistently between 1000-2000 RPM’s, but in a boat, you need to be at higher RPM’s for almost all of the time that you’re using it. An engine with an automotive camshaft won’t produce enough torque to get you up on plane as consistently as needed. Don’t buy a junkyard motor and put it in your boat.

Our Remanufactured Engines

With our 40 years in the engine business we have learned over years what parts and processes work the most effectively to produce a quality unit. With that information we have a Premiere Multi-Step Method that we use to remanufacture our engines.

Only the Best Blocks:

  • We start by selecting only the "healthiest" blocks. No cracks, no rust, no signs of abuse, no signs of salt water use.
  • We completely disassemble the blocks and vigorously clean them along with the cylinder heads and crankshafts. We use a thermal cleaning process which includes baking them in an oven to remove core material and running them through a stainless steel shot machine to clean them to machinable metal.
  • We then demagnetize the engine blocks before machining them on our CNC machine to insure precise OE specifications.

We measure cylinder bores three times:

  • As an example of our passion for perfection, after we bore, hone and plateau brush all cylinder walls, we measure them three times to ten-thousandths of an inch.
  • Bore sizes will rarely be over .030.
  • We know this extra dedication will pay off for you in performance and dependability. 


All of our engine blocks are machined on a Rottler CNC machine. On this machine, our blocks are probed, decked, and bored to factory specifications.

New internal parts, marine gaskets:

  • We install vital new internal parts, including new hypereutectic (heatfighting) pistons where available, new premium piston ring sets, new engine bearings, new valves, new camshafts, new springs, new lifters, new timing components and new tinware (where applicable).

We also install special marine head gaskets-steel, copper or copper clad, whatever the application demands:

  • We always use brass or stainless steel expansion plugs. ALL parts we install meet or exceed original manufacturers' specs. Many parts are actually better than original equipment. We pick up running changes to eliminate problems common in the original engine.

The Final Touch:

  • After our expert technicians have completed all critical machining operations and the components have been washed, our assembly team takes over.
  • We pre-lubricate camshafts and pistons.
  • Once assembled, we spin test every assembled engine on our Sim-Test machine while our technician logs the compression and oil pressure for future reference.
  • After a complete final inspection before shipping…your Marine Engines 4 Less remanufactured engine is fully functional and ready to go.

All of our engines are completely crated and protected for shipping.
