I meant the boat engines. But aye. Im mega paraboid about rust.
The raw water coolled ones do rust from the inside out, especially the exhaust manifolds, in fact the manifolds are basically service items because if they rot out water gets into the cylinders wrecking the engine.

If you already have the engine at hand, I think you best bet going forward would be to get a stand alone ECU to run the engine without the complexities of CAN interface between body control, transmission and ABS/traction control.
There are quite a few to look at by way of possible options to consider, with cost and programmability being the key factors.....

Of course you would need the engine's original harness to splice any new system into, if you do not want to go through the hassle of making a new harness complete with the various connectors that you would have to buy separately.
Looking forward to seeing you getting this done.
All the best with this, and as always, we are on hand to see you through it all successfully.
