rebuildiing a 70 PACHANGA, Question is, could I replace the 460 engine ( rather than rebuild it) with a used but complete 305.
1 person told me the boat would be under powered, it has a jet drive.
What`s your thoughts.
Thanks, Rich
Hi, see your boat is powered by a 327, I am starting to restore a 70 with a 460 jet drive, I thought it might be easier to purchase a merc. 305 rather than to rebuild the 460 , but I was told it would be under powered.
What is your thoughts.
Thanks, Rich
How do you bump the thread up? I contacted the local searay dealer ,they didnt even know that the PACHANGA was made in 69.
Everyone sofar says the HIN is on the transom
not on this boat , Just got the boat Sat. so I am still looking, I wll check the archives thanks
for the info.

Does any one know were I can find parts and info on restoring an original pachanga , I think its a 1970 but still doing resurch to confirm.
Thanks, Rich
Thanks to all ! Now I am really excited :grin:I have the one with no winsheild.
can you tell me were to find the HIN # .
I dont know what yr. it is but I knew it was around 69 or 70 that they were produced.
Thanks again,
Rich
New member looking at a 1970 ? 1973 ? 18' pachanga needs restoration.
Does this boat have a hull id. #
the owner doesnt have a title for the boat or trailer, how hard is it to obtain the above.
how can you tell the year if it has a hid or even w/o the hid. Thanks, Rich
