Motor mounts for 470 mercruiser

[bubba]

I have a 1980 aquasport, with the 470 mercruiser motor. One of the rear motor mounts just took a sh%t. Does anyone know, if the motor has to come out to do this, or can it be done another way? Also is there an upgrade for this motor as far as motor mounts?

                           Thanks, Bubba

If you have room around the engine I think you can change the mounts in place  Check with your local Mercruiser dealer for part availability.
