Are the carbs for inboards any different than that of auto.? I can buy a auto carb for about 300 less on that note do not want to blow up being cheap. Most electrical components on motor are spark resistant not sure on carb. Thks

NO automotive carbs on marine applications. Marine carbs are designed to reduce the risk of fire/explosion in an enclosed environment.

If you want a good MARINE carb, look at the QuickFuel line. If you have a standard 351 Ford small block Windsor, a 600 CFM is a good place to start.

If you want a direct replacement for a Ford 351W small block use the link below:
