IN NEED: Looking for a NEW Old stock (NOS), UNPAINTED, outer exhaust cover for a distributor inline 6 Mercury. (Part numbers 20-60431, 20-79019, 20-86316, 20- 99896A1)It has to be one with the waffle looking reinforcement ribs on the outside. Cannot use the earlier smooth plates. This is for an 1975 NOS J block project. Im building a complete powerhead with brand new parts. The crankcase is unpainted (last pic), hence the need for an unpainted new plate. Ive got good used plates. This one needs to be NOS. Thanks!!

I finally took a few minutes today to get the stator redone for the 35SS... its finally got spark! Thanks to my buddy Prom Son for the parts.. Can anyone share the timing and link/sync procedure for a 1977 402 Merc 2 cylinder outboard? Hate to buy a manual just to use it once if some can share the info with me. Thanks!! Motor is getting close to coming back to life..

Here is the 1 piece motor cowl with my custom gold decals installed....I love the old red stripes and early blue stripes as well, but something about black, gold, and red makes a good combo for me...It weighs exactly 10lbs versus the stock top cover, wrap, and front plate that weighs in at 14.5lbs.

Finally got the tins back from powdercoating and the front cover plate chromed. Thought I would get the parts assembled and get them stickered up for John Kuchtiak's 1969 1250 resto project...Looking good!!

In the shop early this morning. Cleaning up the new "correct, complete" set of WMK 14 carbs I recieved from Tim Calmes at Paradise Boat Works...
Anyway, I noticed the 2 sets of carbs ive got on the bench have different size air bypass holes in the throttle plates. The set I just recieved have smaller holes. Ive also got 1 mismatched set, and another complete, nice, original set from a '77 1500XS here. They both have the same larger holes..
I'm guessing the difference may coincides with the timing change from the early '73/'74 1500 which recommended 23 degrees total timing versus the later with less at 21 degrees? Ive never noticed this before. I dont have a pin gauge set here, but the larger holes are approximately. 010" larger. Its not a big deal, but may cause some timing and mixture screw adjustment differences....Of course may just have been a running engineering change as well...Just putting it out there for discussion....May be a way to help narrow down the vintage of these carbs if anyone has any Merc engineering insight...Bernie Bergen.

Spent the last 3 days building a rear deck cover for the tunnel boat. I wanted it enclosed to cover up the battery, fuel cell, pumps, wiring, cables, hoses etc. Hashed this over for months on what I wanted to do with it. Finally decided I had to move the rear seat forward to make what I wanted to do work.. I'm not a body man, but I m happy with it and I think it fits the boat and the motor perfect. 3 layers of fiberglass, skim coat and filled with bondo. I hit it with some black paint to seal it. I'm going to wrap it with carbon fiber vinyl wrap when I get the money.. now I got room for junk in the trunk!!!🤣🤣
