    My best advice to you is to purchase this book. I'm sure you'll have other questions and the answers will be in here.....

    Boat engines are a whole different breed....

    1st the cams are different but better....Most boat engines have a wider LSA...stock is 114 most boats are 118-120Lsa these make more power and more heat...but boats have a constant supply of cold water and can accomodate more Lsa....

    Pretty much everything else is the same...
