I have an OMC 2.3 Ford motor. I know it is frowned upon using automotive parts for marine applications, but is it safe to do this? Is there a number of parts I can re-use to make this safe? To my understanding the biggest difference is that the overflow on the carb goes back into the tank on marine applications where in a car it is allowed to flow free.
If this is a possibility is there a particular vehicle that used this same carb? I looked at similar-aged Ford Rangers with no success.
Either way I am trying to figure out exactly what kit I need; I believe the carb is a Rochester, carb model 2GE. It still confuses me that a GM carb is on a Ford motor.
