    Need a Source For Swim Ladder Plastic Treads

    I've got an open cooling 83 260 Mercruiser that I'm going to replace the thermostat in and I can't find anywhere what gasket configuration is supposed to be. I know the lower gasket is the one with the four rivets (shown below at right) but the upper cover has three different types. Totally...
