Notes on the engine from the Owner

The cylinder block is a one-over 350 cid V8. The marine conversion is original to the boat with a couple of minor differences. The carburetor is an 80s version of the original so it has an electric choke and this is a great improvement.

When I built the engine, I did so at a Kingston, Ontario machine shop which was well-known for classic custom race and marine engines. The objective was not to create massive horsepower but to create an engine that is well balanced, smooth and efficient.

The components for the short block (block, crank, connecting rods and pistons) were sent to a specialty shop to be line-honed, balanced and assemble. The block was then fitted with a slightly longer duration cam and top-of-the-line GM off-road cylinders head of cast iron. These heads use valves which are wider than stock (2.02). A breaker less electronic ignition kit was fitted. The result is an engine that spins and breathes very easily.

As a bit of a lark, while in the machine shop, I used a computer-driven milling machine and my laptop. As a result, my exhaust manifolds are engraved with a play on my family name WALLSCRAFT.
