Planning on pulling out the Big Chevy in favor of a Big Block Ford into a Mercruiser boat with a Bravo 1.

Planning on building a 598'' A headed Carb motor with BBC exhaust flange. I still plan on running the Merc Saginaw power steering along with alternator and water pump.

Where do I start ?

Thanks guys.

Look here.

2112 is on here as well, but the best pictures I've seen are on the 460 site.

Check with Drew Marine, he is a big Ford guy that has done some swap overs.

Go to the Velocity forum and read up on ExcessEnergy's project with some sick Fords...

I have some old power steering, alternator, and sea pump brackets you might be able to use. We built some new billet brackete and changed the configuration around. These old brackets worked very well. We had to change things around to accommodate the screw blowers. Bob

Excess - Sounds good ! What did you guys do about a bellhousing, coupler, and motor mounts ?

We are running speedmaster drives which requires a trans, so we have a top mount starter bellhousing for the FORD and bolts the trans to that. I'll have 2 sets of motor plates, that you bolt to L brackets bolted to stringers, these will be available also, we are building new. These are steel, powder coated silver. Rex marine used to have these bell housings. Call me if you like. Bob Powell 610-996-0311
