What was that?

[mister460]

I'm buying a '77 Hawaiian 19' with a 460. The guy says it has an OMC jet on it but I'm having trouble finding info on them. I was wondering if he was correct or confused. And how easy is it to replace it with a Berkeley unit? It seems like there's more performance goodies for Berk's. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks guys.
When in doubt, Big Block it!!

I think OMC ventured into jets back in the 60's , but like their other products it's faded away.Get rid of it, fill the hole and put a Berkeley, American turbine or Dominator pump in .

Try giving Jack McClure a call. He is in Southern California (Orange County), which may be more of a drive than you are willing to make--but he's worth it.

Jim , would you know the address of a manufacturer who still makes pullback style wind diflector for the 24 Spectras? Similar to the Howard models I've seen in pictures.I have a spare reverse one [wrong colour;blue]and I need the smoked pullback style.
