The motor is (I believe) a 153 cubic inch (2.5 liter)Chev block. I would imagine a head from a GM block, automotive or otherwise, would work. I'd check with a NAPA or similar parts house that sells both auto and marine supplies and see if the part #'s for replacement bits is the same.<br /><br />------------------<br />Fish on! FISH ON! Holy cr*p, it's a whopper! Oh boy Oh boy! Oh, wait... It's just kelp.
