Welcome to the site! Looks like you got yourself a nice one. It looks great. Some will tell you to snatch that 470 out but dont listen to them, they're really good motors if taken care of (like anything else). and they're good on gas!! I've been completely through mine, and learned alot while doing it. Theres nothing complicated about them. If you got any questions, let em fly. I would suggest changing the dist over to a Pertronix electrionic ignition, it really improves the performance of a 470/170 mercruiser. Best of luck with your new boat!!
