id normally pickup a felpro for a car, but didnt know if there was a marine prefered gasket or anything like that.  i figure ill need a headgasket set, headbolt set, intake manifold gasket set, and exhaust manifold gasket set (previously using silicone, figure its time to just use gaskets), and i dunno what else is needed. 

fairly stock bbc. 

i find the name of the tow vessel rather ironic! i would get that motor flushed stat!!!!! if you get salt water in them cylinders, well you know! sorry about whatever happened! you'll get it fixed

yeah luckily my dad has a giant boat to tow me around in.  i pulled the plugs out and sprayed a ton of WD40 in there to clean the cylinders out and went ahead and used the leftovers on the valve cover area. 

took it out tonight for a test run.  no leaks from teh pump, however i think when i lifted the motor up to get the pump out i think i tugged too hard on the exhaust tubes and they came loose.  when i started going i looked back and i was like ohhh snap.  heh.  the water in the bilge was nice and warm though. 

the good news is that the pump works and sounds GREAT!  gonna head to the shop and pick up some T clamps instead of hose clamps and really tighten those things up.

i get it as well.

How long is the chain?

3'

This is a single groove crank pulley for a BBC (3 bolt) with a low water pump.  (purchased it and i cant use it)



free come get it before i toss it into the recycle bin.

Purchased from home depot but recently installed recessed lighting instead, only used a couple months.  Glass is in great shape and have everything needed to install.



$20

pumps in!  not sure whats up with my steering though.  it got REALLY stiff and its shorter than it used to be.  hrmmmm.  didnt have a new rubber gasket for the pump but ive read on another forum that a spark plug wire works just as good.  so i used that and tossed in a bunch of new silicone around everything. hopefully i can go for a ride sometime this week after the silicone dries and test it out. 

big thanks to jim and ralph.
