What service manual to get for '79 150 V6

[la350]

I posted yesterday regarding a boat/motor combo I was thinking of buying. Well, I went ahead and bought it for 1250.00

I'd like to have a manual to refer to, what do you recommend I purchase? How about aftermarket parts. are there upgraded ignition or carbs available?

Thanks,

A Seloc engine manual will work for lots of good general stuff and is way cheaper than an actual Mercury manual. It is NOT however engine specific, like a Clymer or Chilton’s it will cover a range of engines by HP and year. If you have questions about parts breakdowns, http://www.mercurypartsexpress.com/PartsExpress/ProductSelection/ServiceParts/SPhome.asp
is a big help. You can search by your serial number and get all the info you need.
