i need information on a 1973 glastron hull of 1973 dont know if original engine or replaced if it is a 73 engine it has been converted to hei ignition. it is a ford 351 with through transom exhaust and a jet drive. I have called many places with different results. I am just looking for a camshaft, some say the engine has two different firing orders while others say that there was no 73 351 ford.While some say that glastron made their own engines others say it is mercruiser or omc. I can not find any numbers on the block other than what is under the intake. I have found 351 and 351 stamped on the heads. All I want is the right camshaft and maybe a complete rebuild kit for this engine.

Have a peek here for your model:

Might be a good idea to ask this question on these forums as well:

Lots of experts there, and surely they will know exactly what motor your boat would have come with from the factory.

Cheers.
