It's so hard to tell from pictures, from some angles it looks like the BB has less curve than the later ones I'll just keep looking for a BB hatch, or at least one I could pop a mold off of. Thanks.

I picked up a Barrel Back 2+3 last week, it was a single hatch but unfortunately the engine hatch is AWOL. I was wondering if the hatch on the newer 18 is the same. On the same note, does anyone...
I bought it, and I am in the process of restifying it. I replaced the transom, redid the dash, building 2 408 Cu In Small block Mopars for power. Next month I am going to start on re gel coating...
I know this is an older post, but I converted to the 290/SP transom plates on my Magnum. Here is my reasoning,
First the transom plates with the trim rams pop up on Ebay pretty cheap, ( i have seen...
Did the same on my old Nova 250XL went from stock 260 HP Mercruisers (Old style with the rear riser log manifolds) to 383s with Stainless marine manifolds and risers that dyno'd at 375HP each and...
Beautiful!
Thoughts and prayers out to the the boater and the dock hand, not the way to start a holiday weekend.
Blowers are spark protected, but if you leave them on while fueling, they can suck fumes...
Thanks!
The only 275 HP Chrysler marine engine I am aware of is the very late 360s in the mid 80s when they went to the center rise exhaust manifolds. If there was one in 1972 it mos likely would have been...
The E136263 is definately a 1972 Chrysler Marine S/N but no clue to what HP it was

No I do not...
The Mopar "B" series engines (350,361,383,400) and "RB" series(383,413,426,440) used a different bellhousing pattern than the "A" series engines(273,318,340,360). so it would not be a bolt in swap. ...
Hmmm

What ever happened to this boat? If it was in fact a 375 Chrysler engine, it would have been a 440 6 Pack... Being an avid Mopar guy, my curiosity is peaked. Could it have been a V-Drive boat?
This is a spinoff of the raising an AQ thread. I am thinking about having shafts made for the AQ series out drives that would allow the use of Mercruiser props and I'm just wondering if there is a...
i have done calibration work for Strange , and their facility is top notch. I'm sure they have the capability and equipment to make shafts for the Volvo but their shop is set up to run production on...
I have better sources than Strange. Strange is set up do do rear axles. I have a couple of shops I deal with that make headsets and shafts for transmissions and transaxles.
I have contacts at multiple machine shops in the Chicago area and may be able to get these made. My other thought is making new shafts with the merc splines out of 300m. What is the...

Are you giving up on the Prop adapters? In the pictures you posted, is the square rubber isolator modified? If not, I take it its just the aluminum adapter broached for 17 splines on the inside and...
I am holding out hope for a way to mount Mirage props on my drives, but I also feel I will be able tuck the drives with my now available hydraulic trim to get the boat up on plane with the Solas...

Is it possible to order a 18' bare hull from Donzi? re rig it with your parts and deck. Just a thought
How much are you asking?
If you go with a Volvo 290/SP-A transom you get trim and being that the transom is bigger you can raise the drive almost 3 " without any glass work. The original 270'leg will bolt right back on as...
