I've got me a Buick V6 and electric shift OMC outdrive that I'm thinking about installing on my pontoon boat. You've done a real good job installing your setup. I'd like to see how it goes on the water.
Well I just seen this but I wish people would know well I hope they would know what they're working with the distributor is not the camshaft the valve cover on the top when he took the valve cover fell off that's not the camshaft either that's the rocker arms I think if you're going to work on something you better understand what you're working on first and then how to work on something so my suggestion is take and run some diesel fuel in the top of that motor so cleans out that oil pan and if you have any questions brother please let me know cuz that's what I usually do is work on boats
I know what a camshaft is dude and so do you, sometimes my mind is going a mile a minute and I’m don’t realize I mispronounced a mechanical component until after the fact. Shit happens!
Lmfao Those two pieces of diamond plate You just screwed up big time what that's going to do is going to drag water in and flood your motor out I promise you just watch and see bro I'm laughing my ass off right now
And just to let you know brother you're going about this all the wrong way that pontoon boat is not set up for an inboard outboard motor you better off with the 75 horse the 755 horse motor is 10 times better than that little Volvo I'll try to help you as much as I can bro
Okay the more I watch this and the more I watch this the sicker I get brother if you're going to put that motor in the water like that it'll never lasts you you're going to lose spark you're going to lose the the flywheel is going to get wet it's not going to work right cuz it has a rubber grommet on it you're going to destroy that little motor that is not made for that and it looks like shit
@@Tylerjschmidt bro I'm not a Critic I just know what's going to work and what's not going to work that is not going to work I promise you when you have problems with it please send me a message and tell me I was correct
@@joeclark9042 I’m working on it today as a matter of fact. I already water tested it. It floats fine. Just gotta finish up a couple things. I’ll keep this conversation in mind when something goes wrong. Only time will tell I guess.
Best of luck to you !! Saving a good engine from the scrap yard and thinking outside the box. This is a story worth telling !
Believe it or not, this footage dates back around late 2022 and I’m just now releasing it. I got more videos on this project coming though.
I seen one of these builds years ago. It was amazing.
When this motor goes out. That sum bitch is getting a V8.

Looking forward to part 2!
diesel fuel is a great way to loosen that up a lil bit, cheap too. compared to 237 cans of brake clean :)
Would suggest pulling the motor apart
Nice! I have thought about a similar conversion for mine!!! Lot cheaper than a used $7k outboard.....
Inboards are much easier to work on and cheaper, I think.

not many parts available for Volvos, good luck
You need to protect the bottom of the engine. Not really designed for what you are doing. Good luck with your project
@@ianmitchell3725 I will be installing a trans. I’m not leaving it open like that.
Good move
Former boat builder. Transoms comes in handy
