Hey guys, I picked up a 1966 Chrysler boat. IT has a couple stickers factory stickers that call it the Flamingo, then some that say Formula 1, the outboard on the back is a Chrysler 45Hp.
Model Number 45631 Serial 3851
I have a lot of questions on this engine:
- Does it have a generator or a charging system? The boat has spot light and nav lights and was wondering if that runs off the battery that's being replenished by a charging system.
- Is it a electric shift? I didn't see any wires heading down into the lower unit.
Any other tips or advice?
Skill Level: I rebuilt a Johnson 40HP Big Twin with Electramatic Shift, sos I'm up for a challenge.
