Ken, Napa and Sierra have the same #'s! The Chinese copy everything!! Well, you do learn something every day of your life and still die stupid! No, as a rule I don't like Sierra but I just happen to have a #18-5271 kit in my marine cabinet. I got it just before I took the X55 to GL one year. I figured I had better give the 312 a tune up so just in case my 25 year old point set failed, I wouldn't hear about it from all the CCfan members the rest of my life! Well, Napa did end up coming up with all the Echlin parts so I never used the Sierra kit. |

Somebody must have hacked Pete's account, since the real Pete has no love at all for Sierra parts. Pretty much despises anything Sierra Oh that's right Sierra and NAPA have the same part numbers. Why is that Pete? |

The cap, rotor and condenser is included in the Sierra kit. It's their part # 18-5271 |

Like Riley said those part numbers are for a Mallory distributor
I have a fairly old NAPA marine catalog that gives numbers shown below for a Mallory marine distributor for a 312 Ford Cap 18-5376 Rotor 18-5404-1 Condenser 18-5338 Points 18-5314 This would be for a Mallory distributor with the normal looking cap not the crab cap. The Mallory distributor number on the tag if it's still there might be YL-350A or YL 387A, both take the same parts listed above. If you have a crab cap there would be different numbers for the cap and rotor. |

No on the cap and rotor. We've never changed ours. I think the rotor is the same one all Mallory YL's use, which won't mean much at NAPA. You may have to remove them and bring them in. That's a lot quicker than standing at the counter watching someone paw through all their books.

The Blue being in good shape was a pleasant surprise. Kutsch has a 64' Ski Nautique with same color combo and looking at mine he said their white hull is exactly the same, cracked throughout.
Thanks for all the part numbers, any idea on the cap and rotor?? |

Sparkplugs are Champion F10. They don't make that number anymore, but NAPA will cross reference them.
Chris, Keep in mind how cool Reid's is and how imperfect the gel is. If you've got just the white hull to deal with, you're in good shape. |

Me too Bruce Ever since seeing my first Classic thought they were cool, after I drove Reid's I thought they were Super Cool, after seeing my first Blue one I knew I had to have one! The Blue is in decent shape and should polish out nicely, the white is cracked throughout and has paint or something below the boot stripe, tested a couple spots and hoping it will shine up again which should make the cracks fade quite a bit.. Below the boot strip won't really know until I can strip what is there.

1068? Isn't that a GM number? |

My 312 uses a Napa Gold 1068. It's a shorter filter since the X55 stringer is close to the filter. |

It's a great looking boat. I really like the colors.
It's certainly possible that it's original. Interceptor may have put some down drafts on them towards the end of the line and they never made it into the manuals. Or they could have offered a conversion kit. The thermostat housing does look like it was made for marine use. The motor box doesn't look like it's been altered? |

Pic is shown above as well, but yes. Got to crawl all over it this past weekend. Didn't see any signs of it being a conversion- carb swap, paint color/patina, motorbox construction/modifications, etc. All looked legit to these uncalibrated eyes. Believe Kutsch had similar thoughts, comparing to his fathers 64.

If that is the same boat that has been for sale 2 previous times over the years, 62Wood and I did extensive research on it and determined it was a likely convert, Not that there's anything wrong with that.
Here's an old pic. Motor box looks raised. Fuel line doesn't look original. Thermostat housing looks pretty neat. What's the lettering say on it? |

Whys that Bruce? I see no signs of a conversion. Fuel lines, carb, intake, motorbox all look original. At least to these non-expert eyes.

NAPA gold filter is 1521 Highly doubtful that is an original marine carb set up. |

First you should clean it out before launching Napa will most likely be best for tuneup parts. I went to mine down here for PCM parts,the counter man said as he looked for an old parts catalog that it was worth it's weight in gold--- Pete will be along to recommend Autozone shortly |

As some may know I recently purchased a new to me 1964 Correct Craft Classic in the very rare Blue, I will start a new thread on the boat as a whole soon however at this point I am looking for guidance on basic tune up and engine parts.
Zach and Timmy helped me get the boat running last weekend (thanks again boys!), she ran fairly well but Zach suggested a complete tune-up. Based on their observations they believe this boat has a factory downdraft 4 barrel. What I am looking for is part numbers for the following items: Oil Filter - looks to be screw on type, not a canister but too beat up to read anything on it Spark Plugs & Gap Cap, Rotor, Points, Condenser Anything special on plug wires?? And if other then NAPA best source to purchase items Thanks in advance and some pics from the maiden voyage |
