Do you still have the steering cable and do you know the length?

Ted,
I questioned the water flow at one time and was thinking about drilling out the top tee so that the risers had the same water flow. I decided to not do that because the starboard riser always...
Great photo matty. This is the same set up on my 351. I drew how the fittings, in red, are set up on mine with the small openings and the water flow in blue. I never put it together outside the boat...
Ted
That is great news that you found the raw water pump and bracket for your boat. That will save you some time and cash. As far as the through hull for the water, I attached some photos of my...
Another comment I have is about your trailer. It looks a little lite duty for your boat. I have a single axle trailer also with a 3,500lb axle and for long hauls, my boat is all it wants. I think I...
Ted,
My pump is a Sherwood. I may be able to get a number off of it when I get my boat back from the shop. Yes I had to remove my gas tank because of a leak. I did it without removing the deck....
Ted,
That is cool that your hull is only three away from mine. And the same guy at the factory ?Bill? built them. From your engine photo I think I can see a drive pulley for the raw water pump. Is...
Ted. I have the Interceptor installation but I don?t have a photo of it. No impeller in the outdrive, just a pick-up. Raw water pump is belt driven off the front of the motor and routed through the...
I just got the motor back in the hull of my '66' 16. It is a Ford 351w with a Volvo 270T drive. I have to strip the front of the motor and the exhaust manifolds off to get it in the hull and it has...
I also had Bill sign my hull. The date is only 11 days later.
Thanks mattyboy,
I decided to go with the standard cam and I have already received the long block with the GT40 heads. I think it was a good deal considering the local machine shop was charging...
I guess I could request a specific cam spec like the one moody blue used in his 351.
Advertised Duration (Int/Exh): 284/284
Gross Valve Lift (Int/Exh): .488/.488
LSA: 112
RPM Range: 1500-5000
I have been talking to Rapido Marine out of Florida about a long block Ford 351w for my “66” 16. They have GT40 heads and I will get them put on for an extra charge. I was going to have the...
Would you take $50.00 for the pair?

There is a place in Michigan that looks to be very good at boat wraps. They will travel to apply the wrap or you can do it yourself. Check it out. http://edgewraps.com/
Silvergost, go back to post #28. I don't know if you can use any of your 270 parts on a 280T or not but if you find a 270T shield for parts, you will need to have the 270T steering fork because the...
Some more shots at different angles of my drive. From looking through the Clymer book and what I could find on the internet, it looks like to change from a 270 to a 270T, you will need a different...
Attached are photos of the trim and tilt cylinders on my drive and a shot of the pump. You can get the Clymer repair manual from Amazon....

****(Manual Update I just bought a Seloc 2600 Volvo 1968-91 Repair Manual at a local book store~~~
95% is engine & other later outdrive info~~~

Very little on...
Bob,
I am from the school of if it isn’t broke don’t fix it. I have had my 16 with the interceptor power since the early “80s” with no flappers and have never had water in the exhaust...
This may help with your alternator set-up. My 351w Interceptor has a very simple bolt on post seen on the block photo, and the black bracket seen on the other, that could be made easily. The...
Saturday was mostly a washout but Sunday the sun came out and it was a beautiful. Some pic's of Sunday.
