Hi all,

I have a December 1985 build, 1986 model year 38 Scarab KV Miami Vice Edition.

It's an original 424 hour boat that as I tend to things I work to keep original or restore to original.

I'm having the valve covers refinished and wonder if any of you know how I can get new 400HP valve cover plates?

Next is the exhaust. if anyone has a picture of original exhaust manifolds, the boat was upgraded to Gil exhaust very early in life, possibly as a factory option.

Last for now, the original brass flame arrestors cleaned up great but I need the NMMA warning stickers, anyone reproduce them?

Thank you

Tony

look on e-bay.i have seen them on there before.your valve covers and breathers look just like what came off of my 85,10meter fountain.i had 370,s in it from the factory.

Get ahold of Wayne Kolb on boatfreaks (scarabkv) of facebook he is the vice boat guy and knows them frontwards backwards and sideways. http://forums.boatfreaks.org/member.php?u=5340

Thanks,

I work on the 38KV Vice Edition Face Book page with Wayne.

This was more of a Mercruiser parts inquiry.

What was the original exhaust? I'll trade you my old rear exit manifolds. Lol.

Looks like a center riser cast iron was standard.

The first KV built and used on Miami Vice had the same Gil dry exhaust and KAAMA switchable mufflers, I am fortunate that my boat was set up the same way so it will remain
