Looking for recommendations on a motor project I have. It's a Gen VI 502 block with 14097088 heads. It was originally an MPI motor that I bought without any accessories. My plan is to put this motor back together as a carbureted motor - looking for a reliable set-up - I'll need part numbers for: front accessories, brackets, hoses, pulleys etc. Ignitions system, intake, carb and fuel system. If someone has the whole package from a 'cracked' block please let me know.
Thank you in advance.

I recently converted my inboard from V-Belts to serpentine using these kits. Used crank mounted raw waterpump.

Did you get the alternator? I assume it's not rated for marine use?

just fine for your carb set up.

BTW, I do have a used Gen V seapump/fuel pump combo and a Merc alternator. Both with V belt pulleys. Came off a friends boat when he upgraded the hp and went with electric pumps. I would need to get alternator checked to verify its operational.
