I'm no expert but that sure looks like a 351w.

Hmmm, I don't, but it looks a lot like mine and mine is a W. 79 would know better.

It is a 351w. Looks like the only difference in your distributers is the gear. They must have sent you a l/h rotation

It's definitely a 351W. Cleveland's have different valve covers.
I'm not saying there aren't any out there but I've never seen a Cleveland in a boat....all have been Windsor's.

The new dist' is mallory ylm554cv.
Thats what fits to 351w.but it is oposit direction to what i have (prestolite) and you can not switche the gears between them so...
i had a discussion with 79nautique about it here yesterday ( mallory ylm554cv distributor)
and i took the picters so he can tell me what is the engine type.
i'm waiting for him to reply.
thank you for your help guy.its realy appreciated.
