I finally got my project boat up and " running ". 2001 Mercury Sportjet 240. I seem to be having an issue with the oil injection system. Both tanks have plenty of oil in them. No trouble beeps. The oil seems to be entering the oil pump but not exiting to the VST. I pulled the bleed screw and oil...

Final steps of my engine swap. I have a 4bbl quadrajet for my 350 sbc. New motor has a edelbrock high rise intake that doesnt have any "choke brackets of any kind". The old engine (283, with stock intake) had the choke port on the side. Now i want to convert it to electric choke..
Whats the...

Re: exhaust cooling questions
OK, after further brainstorming, here's what I came up with and would like to do. But I would like some confirmation that this will work correctly (flow correctly)
I was to re-use my old omc t-stat but re-route the lines where needed seeing as I am going to center...
Re: exhaust cooling questions
I found a similar style to mine online. Mine has the same 4 outlets at the same side locations. Mine also has the big main outlet coming out of the bottom piece of the housing (not shown in picture) which runs to the water pump.
Thanks

Hi all!
Continuing my winter project, old 283 to a Newer rebuilt 350 (1978 block). HEI electronic ignition. I have a couple questions. What spark plugs do I run in that motor?
