220 SRV forum

Any pics?

 

Very nice! Back on the water where she should be..

 

We have a '77 SRV220. We are in the same boat (pun intended)--engine issues, also a Mercruiser 188--no spark after pulling out of winter storage. Checked battery, plugs, points, plug cables, dist. cap, coil...no luck. Turns over but no spark.

Our first (only) boat, bought in '04 from original owner's son. Hate to part with it, but it may be time.....:-(

 

I just bought a 78 220 powered by a 188 and a alpha 1 drive. I'm being advised to go gm that the 188 won't push this very well. I don't see this being fast anyways and don't want a gas hog.

How do y'all like this engine?

It doesn't seem cost effective to swap I already have everything ford and could go 351 or stay 302 and ad a few hp . what's your thoughts?

 

Hi
Just joined the site. I have a 74 220 hard top love her best boat ever. I aslo have the 351 ford with 188. I find it to be a little slow but who's in a hurry. Very dependable
