She's a '64 motor. I know you'll get the rest of your answer here from one of the experts.

Howdy Rex.<br /><br />I think '64 was the first year that OMC engines went to a 50:1 mix. Prior to that they used 24:1. Maybe someone will come along who knows exactly.<br /><br />Good luck. :)

You're right - 1964 was the transition year to 50:1.
