    1969 StarCraft 15' Sprint-V

    I rebuilt the transom on it, did a repaint. The 50hp on her is low on compression so I will rebuild it. My question for the group is will a 35hp power it good while the 50 gets rebuilt?

    1974 35hp Chrysler. Battery ignition.

    It does have the timing rod. I set it up as you suggested and it runs smooth and starts very well. Thanks again.

    1974 35hp Chrysler. Battery ignition.

    Hello group, I have an old 35hp with the battery ignition system. How do I time this? I do not have the special tool the screws into number 1 plug hole. Is there a way to use a timing light?

    1987 Force 50hp head warpage.

    Hello Group, I am working on a 50hp, replacing the head gasket. What is the warpage amount before the head should be shaved? Also, should any kind of a sealer be used on the new head gasket?

    Rotary Steering Cable.

    Hello, I am currently replacing the cable on my StarCaft 15' boat. Measuring by the information at the top of this page my measurements are 159 inches. Do I add 6 more inches for an outboard? Should I get a 13 or a 14-foot cable? Thank you.

    Thank you. The weather changed on me. As soon as I can, I'll post results. Any links to the newer red plug cable? I will have to buy a control box for it as the outboard didn't come with one.
