Do you mean the part that is held in by the pins that the outdrive bolts to? If so I’m pretty sure they are different for the drives with nail type pins vs the screw in pins
I wouldn’t re blue it. Use a real copper kitchen scrubber ( make sure it’s copper ) and Baristol ( I cannot spell it ) that will clean the rust and if it’s not bad you almost wouldn’t tell.
I brought a 1936 Carcano back from questionable condition that way. milsurp rifles loose value if...
How do gas logs work? My house has a really nice hearth and mantle, last swept in 2022, we haven’t fired it since we have owned it. I’ve thought about a gas insert. We were planning on a wood stove insert but it voids our home insurance. They won’t allow it. We can however burn wood in the...
In general, fiberglass and any kind of metal is a general no no. Yes foam stringers could work on a limited hp lake that does not get rough water. But it’s the wrong way to go about it. StarCraft, Sylvan, Bluefin all made light weight aluminum boats that will do better with limited horsepower.

What kit did you use? Igniter 2 takes 3 ohm iirc. Igniter 1 gets 1.5ohm. You need to bypass the resistor wire, easiest way is using choke wire. Pertronix often doesn’t work right and burns up coils
Use the one from the 4 winns. Most likely the pane dimensions over the consoles are close. Then narrow or widen the center pane as needed. A good glass shop can do that
you cannot gain stroke from a longer rod. You get stroke from the crank only. Changing rod length affects your rod ratio which does effect your ‘ power band ‘ if you will because it does change the geometry. But with the rod ratio you need to have matched pistons because if you use a longer...
Just so you are aware that is not a 2.5L. That is a 3.7L 165hp ( 470, 488, 165 are all 3.7L.
Not a direct swap to a 3.7L from a 2.5L but can be made to work if you need to ( 3.7L is littered with problems though)
