Hi all. I need a couple things for my new project. I have the 351 but have an auto carb and horrible duraspark ignition. I want to go back to a marine points dizzy that if needed I can upgrade with a kit. I also need a marine carb for that same engine. So far my best new price is 260 bucks..... ------------- https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRtW3vJrMHLdqBzndt9VX3oOpBuRopGlzKq9Ea7pAO7wnTuoD8E8g |

Thanks. Hollywood is sending me a dizzy....so I may be scratching that off my list. Can an auto carb be safely modified for marine use? I can get a marine carb for 260 bucks, but ouch....that's a lot. The carb I have a price on is the cm 702 from autolite. Anyone here use that? The Holly 4160 is hundreds more.... Thanks Corey. ------------- https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRtW3vJrMHLdqBzndt9VX3oOpBuRopGlzKq9Ea7pAO7wnTuoD8E8g |

All of the 351s in these boats are Windsors, not Clevelands. ------------- - Jeff 1999 Ski Nautique |

I would stick with a marine carb if I were you. A seasoned veteran could get by but they'd probably keep a closer eye and have the knowledge on what exactly to be checking up on. ------------- |
