Not many parts left for that old beast as was only made for 2 years. It is a 2.0 liter block that should have 2 finger ports and used a Holley marine fuel pump. The block is different than a 150 2.0 liter as it has the large exhaust chest and "D" shaped exhaust and adapter. The carbs should have the slosh tube kit installed also. It has very little low end grunt and all power is made in the 4500-6500 rpm range,this is not a motor you would use for a bass or ski boat as it was a race production for boats around 700 lbs or less. I only seen 2 of these in shops in past 35 years and several races....

Thats the best info I have seen so far.The boat was given to my son.I think the best bet is to sell it as is.Any thoughts?
