or just walk on a snap-on truck and tell them you want the "fz32" as it's cheaper than the one in the link...

Thanks for the info guys. I replaced the seals today in the heat exchanger, just got the boat back in the garage. So far, no anti-freeze in the bilge and reservoir at same level as when I started.

Thanks again-

Seals $7 each. Cheap.

Made one last run to get Sushi in Seattle today, only boat on the lake! What's up with this killer October weather here in Seattle?

After closer inspection of the valley, I noticed that there was a crack in the block. We had a 25 below winter and the factory anitfreeze didn't protect it. I can't find a new block since GM stopped producing them. Thanks again for all the advice.
