Oh right, 2sav, with the factory iron chebby's inferior intake port, inferior spark plug location, inferior valve angles, inferior combustion chamber shape, inferior coumbustion chamber volumes, ETCETERA (sheez do I have to go on?).

Uh-oh, here comes that damn FoMoCo vs Gm thing again. ;D

Hey 429heads, E7's or F3's? ;)

How about I pattern my plate (onto cardboard) for you to duplicate?

Actually, probably the easiest thing for you to do is to pattern a Glenwood (etc) jet boat plate onto some 3/8" 6061 with room to extend the bottom of the plate edge to v-drive spec....and then just machine your typical jet boat waterpump block-off plate for the v-drive waterpump.
