Re: G16 engine vs salt water
I'm no expert, but if there are no cracks and rest of the crankcase is not falling apart, the engine should still be fine.

Re: G16 engine vs salt water
Yea, however, how can I attach the front of the engine to the swing arm?

Re: G16 engine vs salt water
Can you take it to an aluminum welding shop?

Re: G16 engine vs salt water
Holly crap ! Just a thought from the peanut gallery. Looks like the is enough "meat" left to drill a hole in the center to attatch to the rear bracket. Still would use the motor mounts on the stock rear bracket. If a aluminum welder would touch it, they'd probably want the engine taken apart and cleaned like the dickens. Good luck.

Re: G16 engine vs salt water
I would think not, the material that is there is turning to a crumbling almost powder material. I will try to fabricate a steel top to encapsulate whats left of the lip.

Re: G16 engine vs salt water
Well what happens here near Myrtle Beach is a golf cart will not start for what ever reason, then it will sit for a time. The problem occurs if it sits in a low lying area near the beach, it can suffer many king high tides. 6 to 7 inches of water is very possible in certain areas. When I got this cart, it was rusted in half.
