    for an oilpan, how does the gasket know if its in a boat or a car? marine gaskets are needed for the headgaskets. all else is same across cars, trucks, boats, stump grinders, generators and fork lifts

    Attaching T-Top Tower to floor

    boats from the factory with T-tops, upper helms, etc have aluminum plates glassed in under the deck for the T-tops to anchor to. I would suggest you add a deck hatch to get a backing plate in the area you want to mount. toggle bolts may work for a while, however if they rip out, they will pull...

    4.3 engine mounted raw water pump inquiry

    but you are not moving from an alpha to a bravo. so your premise is flawed. if you stick with an alpha and add the crank driven raw water pump, you still need to maintain the raw water pump in the leg.

    What should I do with this free boat?

    Intake port cc question for 5.7l sbc

    You are over thinking it. If you have stock flat tops with the 4 piston reliefs, stock vortec heads and .045 quench (0.017 deck clearance and a .028 head gasket) you can run 87 octane pump swill. Change cam to something better than the stock bump stick for bigger returns than dart heads...

    Winter Storage/Cover with Radar Arch . . .

    Ted, the other alternative is for you to bring the boat down here and simply not subject your boat to snow load :D A bud has a slip at the Sarasota Yacht Club, however his VP pod has water in the gear box, so he is on the hard for a few months.
