I got the AQ170 striaght 6 which has 3 carbs. Was wondering if anyone knows if there is an intake manifold that reduces the 3 carbs to just 1.

Also... If i decide to get ride of this motor and put in a chevy or ford motor, than what will match up with the mounts, and what can the prop assemby handle.

Sorry if i sound like a rockie. I kow alot about cars and trucks but nothing about boats.
 
Probably not gonna find a manifold unless you contact the auto parts people.
Puting in a Chev or Ford.You'd be better off buying a different boat.The bell housing won't match.The mounts probably won't match.The hole in the transom won't match any other drives.
The drive should you get anything to hook to it can handle up to 700hp.
It would be easier to look for a different boat.If you should decide to keep that boat and repower.The transom needs to be filled and the mounts can be modified. Get a different boat or keep the one you have.The one you have the parts are WAY EXPENSIVE!!! Good luck,J
