Re: 1952 Evinrude 25 hp BigTwin
Wow, Jim that's absolutely gorgeous. At the time I couldn't find a pressure tank, and was unwilling to pay the prices that some people are asking on ebay.
Since then I bought a trailer and two truck loads of this man's outboard motor parts collection. $50 on ebay, I was the only bidder, and he lived 15 min. up the road. What luck! Project motors and more parts than I could ever use. In that lot were 5 pressure tanks all in good shape. So I won't be converting them over anymore.
Zephyr, 50's Evinrudes/Johnsons to me are stinking beautiful. A fun time in American design, it was all about the future. Extremely simple to work on, although this thread shoot's that statement in the foot.
Thanks everyone, for your generous help, enjoy!
