That's what I'm hoping for moke, either that or I know a lot of small boat owners that may need an anchor!

It sounds like an interesting project, especially when its buck she (free)

 

If its the 1100/1300 gearbox the bolts for the remote go in from the side.

 

You can use the gear set in the rod change box

 

As its down as a 1400 it could be anything inside

 

Hopefully it never ends up as a boat anchor

I've since found out that it may well be bored out, I'll only find out when I get it home and take off the head. Hopefully it's not a 1380 as I'd like to think that there's at least one more bore left if it needs it. The twin carbs alone for a resale value means I'm ahead no matter how bad the block is!
