Off Topic, Any Boat People in here?

[dr_frankenstein]

I live in the middle of the desert.

but there are lakes here. a good size one (well to me) about an hour away, But I havent had any luck finding some parts... I figured maybe an eastcoasty or westcoasty might be of some help.

I need a 91 and later GM 3.0 4cyl Crankshaft.

Also used in OMC some Forklifts... etc etc....

ive been looking for about 2 months now, and no luck.

any help would be great.

Hyster (forklifts) use that engine. Maybe contact a dealer?

Not sure how your going to get one but they may have a source for you.

Wish I could help.
