Re: fishbonejrs prop problem
 
i looked at your gallery, your engine is a 165 hp, pretty good version of that engine, I'm not a fan of that mercrab on there, but replacing it with a two barrel Rochester takes some modifications. You might start looking for a used 4 barrel set up for that engine, they are hard to find, but it couldn't hurt, it raises the hp to 190, had the same bottoom end and cam, only differrence is the intake, carb, oil cooler. try to get it all as a package so you'll have everything. You may have to replace your throttle cable also, as it comes in at a different angle. Another good thing to do to that engine is to replace the points with an electronic ignition, use the "pertronic" conversion, it uses your existing distributor and is easy to install, its also available thru Sierra. There are several things that can be done to that engine, but remeber, its still a 4 cylinder, it will never run with a 5.7.

First and formost, find out what prop you have! Then go from there.
