OK small block I found my glasses. A closer look at the list has your motor listed as a 1953 mod# 3935. I appreciate the offer, but it's enough just to know that there are other wierd people like myself. You know the kind that will drag an old orphaned outboard home just to see if it will still run. Hope you have fun. I do.
