1987 Chris craft Thru Hull

[davidonmars]

Hey hows it going just picked up my first boat a 1987 Chris craft 210 Limited with the OMC 5 litre. I've done all my research about these OMC and this one does have the updated red shift cable and it shift smoothly. I want to do a Thru Hull exhaust on this. Is there a place I can buy just the block off plate? I have plenty of hose left over from when we did my friends Mercruiser Thru hull exhaust so I can probably just use that to run to the transom and get some exhaust tips. Thanks

Couldn't find it in OMC, but here it is in Volvo, same part.
